I found this hiding at bottom of the stash it's more of a part rescue part build.
And what I have to contend with.
Decals are ok

Hi Peter
Whoever started that must have been very drunk
Good luck. It will be interesting to see what you have to do and how it plays out.

CID would probably be able to work out who they were by the fingerprint . Should sand down nicely though, it must be very dry now.

After a few hours of work it now looks like this.

That's smartened up Peter.

It looks like the paint was old style humbrol gloss and the old humbrol tube glue.

All sewn up took a couple of goes.
And all the wings on.

All looking good.

Looking good Peter ...without the muck.
My kit suffered from the old floods so its destruction and decalless.

Cheers,
Richard

Started giving it some colour.
And the camouflage masking the canopy was a real pain.

Looking nice Peter. I do like a bit of desert camo.

Well Peter
You've worked a bit of magic on this. It actually looks very good now. When I looked at the 'before' photos I honestly thought that it would end up in the bin
