1890 Stagecoach Jordan Highway Miniatures

Found this at the LHS this weekend. Did not open the box until this afternoon. I figured how difficult can it be after the tractor. I decided to return it but it would not fit back in the box. Has anyone built this?

I have'nt built this particular one, but have built a couple of his wagon kits.
Think cleated tires multiplied. If this one is similiar to his wagon kits, the hardest
part is where the springs go under one support part and over the other support part.

From your picture, this one looks even more complicated!

But, darn, are'nt they fun and challenging! And addictive! :)) :)) :))

Sorry to have mislead so many, I thought the title of the first picture would be enough. Horses did come with this kit, I had them glueing together when I took the picture. I'm bad. :ymdevil: At present my thoughts are to use the stagecoach to advertise an inn or resturant or something that can be called the Stagecoach ______? and the horses, who knows. How do you paint the darns things? to make them look like horses?

Could put a sign on the side and use it as a tour vehicle aka central park type carriage.
