The engine looks really nice, George @chinesegeorge
A pity most of it will not be visible in the end.

Good evening gentlemen, @eb801, @gblair, @garybrantley, a class='bp-suggestions-mention' href='https://imodeler.com/members/fiveten/' rel='nofollow'>@fiveten @johnb. To finish off the engine I added the exhausts, cylinder heads, and air cleaner.

And then made a start on the interior. Some of the pictures I found on the internet had a finish using chopped up carbon fibre embedded in resin, I tried a couple of paints and settled on standard gun metal which looked fairly close. On a lightweight special there are no carpets.

The seats are interesting, the frames are part of the floor molding with cushions fixed on to make them comfortable. Here’s a picture with some of the cushions fixed.

They are supplied in a gloss red styrene with a paint callout of matt red. I was puzzling on how best to do this when I hit upon the idea of just giving them a light sanding to dull down the gloss finish, and I think it worked out OK.

So this is how she looks at the moment. Plenty of work still to do on the inside.

Many thanks to everyone for looking and for your kind comments, happy modelling.

The interior looks very realistic and suitably busy, George (@chinesegeorge). The red seats look fine.

Toning down the red styrene was a good idea George @chinesegeorge. Those seats look terrific although I agree with Gary, not too comfortable looking. Nice progress.
