Northampton Plans?

[Sean Hert]

Anyone have a set of plans, or just a good profile plan view, of a Northampton? I have an old BWN kit of Houston where the hulls needs some TLC.

So I assume that you like it ! Paul Webbs series of Warship Drawings when it came out in 1970s was and still is very good value . I thinks that it part of what we are here for is to share old treasures like this around.

Yes, it was exactly what I needed, and I really appreciate it. I'll try and get a thread started in WIP this week so you can see what you helped with!
