This could take a while

This isn't just modelling, this is modelling with a great helping of engineering. Excellent work Francis, VERY impressed.

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.

Once again, almost a work of art!

I think a few of the modern day garages could do with a leaf out of your book Francis. The attention to detail is outstanding.

Fantastic work Francis.

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.

Could almost be the real thing.

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.
