Ron GarciaNice kit. Nothing major to nitpick about. Good details throughout.
The link and length tracks are nice. Be warned, though, that there is exactly enough links to make a snug fit. One side felt like it could use one more link, but I managed to make it work.
Not a lot of PE but it did seem to pop up in the instructions and slow me down every time I was getting into a groove with the injection molded pieces. The rounded muffler grille was tricky to bend correctly and attach. The instructions have you bend it around the muffler and then attach it to two tiny locating pins. Took a lot of play to get it right. The kit probably should have included a rounded plastic dowel to help shape the grille around. I used super glue and accelerator to attach the ends to each other, but those handy with a soldering iron might want to solder them instead.
Lots of small parts made this kit slower than usual to build. Not a problem, but it will take time to finish.
Because of the PE, I'd recommend this for a more experienced modeler.

Ron GarciaIf you're thinking about buying this kit, take a look at the mini review I did for the other variant CB35151. It might help you decide which version to purchase.
