Description :

This is a heavy aluminum desktop model of Republic's F-105 Thunderbird jet from Topping. Topping only made 2,500 of these in 1960 and they are becoming increasingly hard to find. It has a graceful curved support on a stream-lined base. This model has a fair amount of wear over the top of the plane where it was painted a green/brown, but it is still a real beauty with exquisite design lines and mostly intact decals. Really nice display model if it were buffed up & given some TLC. Please note that this model is in the Jet Graveyard because it is missing the cockpit canopy & base label, sits slightly askew, and shows wear.

Canopies are available for about $15: https://www.precisemodelsllc.com/product-page/republic-f-105-thunderchief-canopy
