        A little update, exhaust/turbo set up under way and mocked up. Although its unlikely to be seen, I filled the rather large slot in the underside of the exhaust.

        Also having a go at making the underside diffuser, something that Mr Tamiya mysteriously seems to have missed out....???

                Ok, diffuser done and on, and all the self contained plumbing that I want to do done. There will be some more wiring etc, but I'll wait until the engine/box are mounted.

                    Hi all. Ok, so the lower tub is complete and painted, and now the drivers tub is painted and just waiting for a few bits of pipework, etc. One of the pieces that had been done was the instrument panel, so its been a bit tricky to do anything with it. I've managed to scrape a few details, but will leave it at that. Rads painted and washed and ready for some pipes.

                    And as you can see, jumped in and spilt the main bodywork. The front half will be fixed and if all goes well the rear will be able to be fitted or removed, assuming I can get it to fit properly !! We'll have to see how that goes....

                            Hi all, sorry for the delay !! My absence was caused by various computer / life issues, but hopefully all is sorted. I was still able to slap a few bits of plastic together, and the upshot of this is that the Brabham is finished !!!

                            So apologies to those following the build, but pics will be going up in the "Finished" section soon.

                            Cheers, Neil
