The 38 Class: Corrections to the pilot models are underway at the factory and will be completed when work resumes in March after Chinese New Year. Art-work is nearing completion and will be at the factory when work resumes in March. Painted samples are also now nearing completion and will accompany the art-work.

It is always dangerous to predict delivery dates but if corrections and paint masks are completed in March an April/May production date is likely

These are available for $595 Aussie and for an extra $99 you get sound too.

Your Garratt's pretty awesome Ozzie.

I'd get one if I thought I could do a similar job. Unfortunately I have never tried one of these kits and a Garratt is probably not the one to start on.
