Coming along nicely. How is the fit so far?

Thanks Villiers it's been a really good build the engineering is very well thought out. Most of the parts fit like a glove, I had only one misalignment with the lower radiator hose but even that was minor. The wire assemblies are also tricky to bend into correct orientations. Mine are not perfect but I am happy with them. Thans for your interest.

Finally got to the step where I can start the body work. The front wheels were a bit of challege with some tiny nuts to secure the wheel hub to the axel, The steering assembly is made to move but in all honestly it is all plastic and its just not rugged enough so I will pose the wheels and dispense with there steering.
