Thanks pete! I'm starting to hate this kit which may explain why I am taking a long time to finish it. I hope the Revell Jaguar XK-E Coupe is a much better kit than this pile of plastic!

Thanks Les! I have several builds on the bench and I need to get some of them moving and off the bench. This Jag is one and another is my Revell '70 'Cuda 440+6 as they are closer to completion that the others I have.

The Story McNally decides to "break in" to Charles Dennett's house and look around. He searches Charles desk and he finds the box with his Smith & Wesson and a partial box of bullets. He takes the gun and a few bullets and he goes back to Boston Police Headquarters to have the gun tested by Forensics. He takes the gun back to Charles' house and he places in back in the draw with the few remaining bullets and he locks the desk and he leaves the house. The gun may have been used to kill Johnny Wilson. The Build Somehow the steering shaft broke and I figured out a way to re-secure it. I used 2 pieces of 3/32 tubing cut to equal lengths and inserted the shaft into the tubing and glued them in place and then I painted them.   McNally will return... |

The Story Darvell walks back into Homicide and he throws his coat over the back of his chair and he plops his fat body down in his chair with the springs protesting very loudly. Lt. Det. Troy sees him and he calls him into his office. Lt. Troy wants to know about the investigation of Johnny Wilson. Darvell tells Lt. Troy that he gathered very little evidence at the scene and that he had question McNally about the shooting. Lt. Troy wants to know why McNally was accused of the murder. Darvell says he was trying to shake loose any information out of the Boston PI. "You accused him of murder when he actually found the body. He didn't file a complaint, but he mentioned it to me. You will stop accusing him of every murder you investigate or I will turn this over to the Internal Affairs Bureau! Now, get out of my office and get back to work!" The Build I glued the front spindles to the upper A arms so they wouldn't fall out. The upper A arms are so weak they might break on me. I added the windshield and painted the side wings Tamiya Silver on the doors.    McNally will return... |

The Story McNally walks back down to the front desk at Boston Police Headquarters to turn in his badge. Det. Darvell approaches him before he turns the badge in and asks if he could talk to him. They walk over to a far corner of the lobby and Darvell says he is just doing his job and he is trying to shake any and all information out of whoever he talks to. McNally says that Darvell needs to relearn how to talk to suspects and people in general. All he is doing is getting people mad at him and not doing his cases any good. He tells Darvell that he needs to relearn investigative techniques and to start over again. Darvell listens to McNally and he says he is sorry for the trouble he has caused. He turns and walks away and McNally suspects that Darvell will not bother relearning anything and continue on irritating anybody he talks to. The Build I started final assembly of the Jaguar XK-E Cabriolet by adding the front bumpers and grille. I work on the rear of the Jag later and then do a polishing of the body which has a lot of fingerprints, especially on the hood.    McNally, Boston PI will return |

The Story
The Forensic report shows that the gun that McNally found was used to kill Johnny Wilson. Since no one else knows the pass code to Richie's house besides him and Charles Dennett, Dennett was to one that had taken the coin collection while Richie was out. Dennett is arrested for murder and grand theft of the coin collection. Richie accompanies McNally to BPD Headquarters and he examines the coin collection and he says that it is his. The coin collection will be photographed and returned to Richie after the court trial.
I have finished my Jaguar XK-E and it is posted in On The Road. I would like to thank all those who have viewed and commented on my WIP.
