The build of this started a while ago, a lot of interior sub-assemblies, so far so good. this is where it is at the moment - all parts still just placed to see how things are going:
hope to get a satin coat on today andthen can start weathering

Well detailed internal parts… Glad to see you’re back at it
Looks very nice - is this the build sequence Takom prescribes, or are you using experience to jump around a bit?
using experience and also other build threads… I prefer to have all sub-assemblies built before starting to add bits together, makes life easier if you need to alter the sequence
It looks very good so far. Very neat construction, as is the paintwork. It’s a pity that after completing the hull, you can’t see the engine. Still, putting the engine together and painting it is a good exercise.
If the interior is good I might raise the upper hull on clear rod, will see
some panel line/mucky weathering… once the matt coat is on I will add some oil stains and then can start to put it all together
Transmission and first side on. The torsion bars are a little painful but they go with some persuasion
more interior building done… engine, transmission, engine firewall, seats, controls… have also added the suspension swing arms as want to do the tracks before putting the upper parts on…
