A good looking result Chris.

And now for the right hand side ancillaries, similar to the left hand side oil pump but with out the hydraulic pump. Plus a bonus issue, the underside view of the dry sump and the ancillaries on both sides. Next up the action turns to the top of the engine and the fuel system.

Interesting collection of little ships Dave. Looks like you're well on the way to rivalling Colonel Tony's fleet.

Very commendable on many fronts Kev, environmental, resource conservation, and most of all it's a nice kit.

A note to Dave; Time flies like an arrow however fruit flies like a banana.

I've moved onto the ancillaries and the last few sessions have been devoted to the those on the left hand side, hydraulic pump, oil system and associated plumbing. The pumps and arrangement of them seem to vary a lot and it's taken a while to pin down the those that relate to this car. Thankfully these will be hard to see in the body work of the car so I should be safe from all but the most pedantic of the know all brigade.

It has definitely turned out alright Kev. A stunning result.

Looking good Chris and definitely a subject where there's nowhere to hide any fumbles.

I do like the Hikawamaru and the krokenhaus ship. To me they represent graceful classic lines unlike the maritime apartment blocks the float around today. Great work Dave.

Timing gears enclosed and ancillary drive belt and pulley's added to the front end today.

Know what you are saying, I'm experiencing a similar challenge on my current build. Sorting the subtle differences of various 'rivets' and bolts for each stage is visually and mentally very taxing.

Moving on to detailing the rocker covers. The right hand one has the Ford logo polished and the holding down bolts added. The left hand one is freshly painted and will be detailed tomorrow, or the next day. Finally a shot of the right hand cover and the sprue of bolts for the yet to be detailed cover.

I'm liking this theme you're working on Dave.

Trolling through some old posts I came across this and thought it's about time to post some shots of the finished job. Dora Wings Percival Proctor III, kit 48016 finished as the ZK-ATW. Phill Lightband, Peter Hobart and Don McBean set out from Elstree on the 22nd of December, 1949 on their flight to Sydney.

C'mon Martin every ones danced to Plastic Bertrand. If you'd called out people who'd danced to Tee Garden and Van Winkle and got some takers then I would have been surprised.

Excellent coverage with the yellow Kev. Seems there is more than one way to get a result with Yellow.
