        My word Bob this is coming on, agree with Peter on the fag paper and nice work on the engine itself.

                  Hi Bob
                  That is a very nice looking rear end :thumb2: The cigarette foil heat shield was a clever idea and looks very good.

                        Hi guys,

                        Just a quick update. I've been painting some of the interior parts (tub, seats, dash, steering wheel, etc) which are now drying. I'll put pics up when I've done the detail painting.

                        So I've also been working on the body, getting rid of EPM's and mold seams. I decided to test fit the rear glass which is when I realised it's too small, there's a gap either side!

                        [ATTACH]340321[/ATTACH]

                        I've thought about various options, but have pretty much decided just to leave it as is. This is a dog of a kit, poor fitting throughout, badly thought out construction order and rubbish plastic.

                        I've decided to just use the kit for practice and treat myself to a much nicer Tamiya Ferrari kit, probably the FXX K.

                        This is the last revell kit in my stash and will be the last revell kit I ever build. Every one I've finished has had issues that you just don't get with other kits. I appreciate they are cheap, but pay peanuts get monkeys.

                          Nice. Liking this a lot the fag packet foil works a treat.

                              That's to leave room for the seal Bob!
