Hi Kevin @injidup, I used the kit supplied lenses for the instruments, they look OK I think, remember the age of the car, they didn’t have super thin lenses then. Also the dashboard is pretty much hidden once the bodywork is fitted. Good luck with those body fixings.

Spark plug wires look really good, Kevin @injidup
Those body fixings look great, a challenge to get them on.

Not much to add this week, but I thought I would try the bodywork pins, to see if I could remove them from the base without breaking them, and then drill a 0.6mm hole.
They are TINY! But I think I can do it. I need to find a suitable “wire” to run between them.

It’s only the first of many! Consistency will be important. And I will have to try not to break the drill bits!

I’ve made some progress over the past few days.
Wheels are assembled, hubs attached, some plumbing has been fitted around the engine bay using the copper “piping” provided.
I’ve also cut the body pins off the chassis in preparation for drilling the holes for the 3D printed pins. I should probably paint it after I’ve drilled the holes.
I did a dry fit of the wheels so you can see what it looks like. Definitely a Type 35!

Always a fine moment when a model wears its shoes, my friend @injidup! Great result!

Dry fit of some of the body. The wheels look wonky because they are not fixed on yet!

I’ve also found something to use for the lock wires on the body - a broken acoustic guitar string that I’ve unwound and has provided a very fine piece of wire.
I need to consider how to neatly colour the wheel bolts without making a mess of them!
