Another weekend of English summer in prospect I've settled into my warm workshop and decided to tackle this one.

Engine and chassis pretty much sorted. A trial fit of the seat highlighted the need for some adjustment to its position. With that done tonight and possibly some of tomorrow will be spent adding a harness.

While that's the interior and chassis detailed as much as it's going to be. Now onto polishing off the fine mould lines and cleaning up the body work for painting.

Here you go Martin. This should provide protection from any wind when fitted to the chassis. Body work primed and only a couple of spots needing a little more prep.

Going nicely Francis.
I'm sure it will look splendid with some colour on.

Coming along nicely. Looking forward to seeing the body and chassis joined and painted.

Final top coat on the body work applied today. The next week will see nothing happening as is usual while watching paint dry. After that I'll tackle the detailing which may take some time.

The paint stand is half of a set by Tamiya that I bought years ago which have proven to be versatile and useful.
Picture is a check on the 'sit' of the body on the chassis.
