1/96th USS Julius Furer FFG-6

[Guest]

Oh this is going to be good! Always loved these little FFGs and this one is looking great so far. Those fittings are phenominal. If you are in need of photos I'd suggest rooting around over on these two sites:

Search for "FFG-1" with the quotes (sub in the other ships as well) and you'll find some high-res shots of her class. They only have one shot of FFG-6 for some reason but its from 1984 so it should prove helpful.

Hope that helps a bit,

You might try this....Type into Google "We went to see the (ship name) while on vacation."
Go to image results.

I got lots of excellent up close on deck photos that way.

Hey guys,
Jerry- if you're still around these boards, drop me a PM,

Hello,

First Time poster and long time interest in models.

I served aboard The USS Julius A Furer from 1976 to 1979.

I would be interested in knowing if you would consider selling this wonderful example of my ship. I run the FB page for the ship and also organize some of our ships reunion.

Thanks in advance

Hi Ed,
Thank you for the kind words ! However, I don�t have that model anymore- I made it for a longtime friend that sailed on her in the 80�s (guessing you may know him� W Giddens???)
Best regards
Brad
