            Scottie,
            More bits there than I got for Xmas.... Just put some filler in those pot holes, I use Mr Surfacer 500 and thin it down with either cellulose or their own thinner - outside helps as it stops you falling of the chair...
            Will keep an eye on you.
            Mike.

              Yes, but then you'll scratch replacements that look better than the kit parts!

                Hi Mike,
                There is quite a bit of plastic for such a small vehicle. I normally use squadron green but just found out my tube has dried out so have ordered another one.

                  Thanks Pete but I think I will try and get them off without breaking them.

                      I try to keep him lean but he has a few tit bits now and then.

                        Not a lot done today but a few details added. I'm not going to go overboard as even with the hatches open you wont see much inside. So just some seat cushions and frame. The mounting bracket for the filter? was also scratched as the kit item was far to thick.

                        Next the radio received a little colour, again not perfect by any means but will hopefully look alright when fitted inside.

                            I'll pull up a chair Paul, looks an interesting build.

                                Evening Buddy,

                                Nice choice of a kit. I have wanted this one for a long time, but it was always too expensive in evilbay. I know you will do a super job building it and will you be putting Sean Connery in the TC hatch???

                                Would have been in sooner, but JR has me tending bar in his build, so time is limited...……...

                                Prost
                                Allen
                                Life's to short to be a sheep...
