(...) Wow, that is really cool. My guess is that it is BB55 North Carolina circa 1943-1944. I can't wait to see it is finished. Looks great so far. I like the lines of the bow and the turrets. The 5-38 turrets look great. The dazzle cammoflage (...) (21 years ago, 15-Jan-04, to lugnet.build.military, FTX)
