I was rooting through some old storage and found this from a couple of years ago. I thought about repairing and finishing it, any advice would be appreciated.

Thatīs a Firefly Vc. I supose its a Dragon kit. I canīt appriciate much in the pics, but it looks that with a good paint job, drybrushing and weathering it will be a very nice model. It seems that the boogies are not well alligned.
I built that kit two years ago and for me the challenge were the tracks, very tricky and bussy building. I will post some pics in my Gallerie.
I love Shermans

Like CAS said, it can use a bit of bogie realignment.

Other than that, you might want to add markings, antennas, a bit of stowage, a bit more weathering in the right places, then !Poof! -- you've got yourself a decent Firefly VC. I think markings would add a lot to it, even if you do nothing else.
