[puffyrs]

slow going but back on it.
Out of all the photos a have only one car was black inside, all the rest were silver.
So I went for silver.
Added a tube and spring to the the cable.
Only 1 photo at moment .

You are doing a great job on this not-easy kit.
I personnally regret that the engineering of this model is not up to the price tag, to say the least

Still working on the inside.
The straps for the extinguisher are not that good , so made new ones from the metal on a floppy disc.


Then on to the seat and frames.
some small parts to paint so stuck them onto some masking tape.




seats painted


seats are matt


you do not get enough red ribbon for the seats belts, so have had to ordersome more. Also you do not get any measurements for the belts so that is a pain.

i must say that I should have make it silver inside...looking good, as for the seat belts, I had enough of ribbon, strange.
Looking forward to see next update.

Better hurry up, they have announced they are releasing a bunch more including Safari versions. I can feel my wallet screaming already.

Hello
Been working on dash.


Also started on engine. Added clips for HT leads and extra water pipes not in kit.

Been a bit slow but thought I would show photos of the Engine MFH 1/12th scale and my scratch built 1/10th scale.
MHF done with CAD mine done with eyes and my hands.
I don't think I did to bad.
They are 2 versions 1/10th is early and 1/12th late.

You've done it great! Your engine is more vivid than MFH's.

I keep looking at the dash and I can't help but wonder where you found those Giant Tamiya prop bottle.

Because there is no way this dash is in scale, is it?

Kidding aside, this is masterful model building. Inspiring and discouraging in equal mesures!
