British Light Utility Car 10HP Princess Elizabeth

All the bits

Idea

3 the rolled up section was a lot harder to fit than I would thought!

Found the reason for the difficulty is I fitted the part to the wrong end oops

Spot the error

6 (5 was the construction of the tires)

9 another modeller fubar I snapped the gear stick - will have to make a new one now

As far as I can go before needing to paint

First application of colours

I've always had an idea to document a build as I complete each step in the instructions so I giving it a go with this one as the kit is not to complex. If I still had access to photo shop (I miss the good old days on none cloud programs) I'd over lay the kit on the instructions but when I tried this via an app the results took too long and where not good either so this is a simple photo run through

Closing in on the finish line just a few little bits to do ( they always seam to take the most time)
I'm also amazed at how fragile some of the detail is or more likely how ham fisted I am. I've snapped 3 pieces - top door frame, rear bumper and front wheel connecting rod 🙄
Need to start on the figure now too

Cheers all for the comments. This kit is interesting as while it not mentioned in the kits instructions the decal sheet does contain the markings for the vehicle in HM Elizabeth's picture! As it's not mentioned you have to take your own punt at the colours and construction versions but it's nice to have the decals 😎
