    Ok track guards finished and fitted, made up 1:35 tracks and they fit, not much room left I was hoping to try and get the return rollers in (this has never been done though)
    Test fit and rough mockup the tracks will be tighter on final assembly all the running gear comes off to be painted.

      The first consignment of Mr 'Ts' pewter is ready for shipping.

      Working with pewter is a black art so I'll need a lot of help so for a "ONE OFF" performance I have asked these guys to help me.

                    Well I think I'm calling the hull finished.
                    Added track guard supports, spare road wheels, water cans, rear fuel jerry can and strap, stowage bins and padlocks, made w/can brackets from left photo-etch fret with pewter hex bolt heads.

                              Cheers Rich I'm going for a shabby chic look, the last couple of Toons have been desert orientated, still a bit more to do.
                              Hope you are a bit better mate.
                              Pete.
