Is this the old Academy kit reboxed, or a new one?

No, I did not forget this project and after more then a year, I am back to finish it. There is several project in various stage of work and hope they all will be completed. Now, I start preparation for final fit, this include to smooth all join lines and fit all parts and start painting. Decals will be for British sample, GA-M from no 112 Squadron. Interesting is that three P-40M have letters GA-M:

FR811,GAM, 43-5612, Missing Apr 8, 1944
FR861,GAM, 43-5755, Force landed north of Trogir, Yugoslavia Mar 22, 1944 following flak hit

My sample will be:

FR864,GAM, 43-5758, Crashed at Ripa Dec 20, 1943 after pilot bailed out following flak hit

Big problem for now is lack of any image of this plane.
