    Hi got some bits built on this one.
    Front and rear wheels all made up, added centre caps and tyre valves.

    Built up one side of the diff with punched out discs from white card and added filler plug and drain plug.

    Before and after on the hand there's a lot of flash as you can see.[ATTACH=CONFIG]n[/ATTACH]
    Have used ships air funnels from my my spare scrap box how to make air manifold intakes and exhaust pipes all cleaned up and cut them fitted.

    Added prop shaft, chassis rails and handles to the side of the coffin.

    Mock up only.
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]n[/ATTACH] Assemble the hat and the head I will have to build up the rear of the mouth because it's too open.

    Thank everyone for looking in
    Pete.

                      That I can well understand - always need to get home to the little woman after a hard day at work.
                      Nice additions already.

                            Hi Rick I can think of a couple and I bet there's a few other people on here that can as well.
