for free! The Ace kit is nice. The Sterling kit, well, not so much. But, I expected that. Still. with some TLC (okay, a lot!).the Waco will be a very nice project.
Those old Sterling kits are what they are, but it is still a chance to build a model that you don't see everyday. I got an old Aristocraft Staggerwing from the local laser cutter after he was done using it to make cut files. (His version has corrected and improved fit and finish) It took a fair amount of work to adapt it to modern equipment but it was a rewarding build.
