Hi got me first pack . So set to an done it .On first iimpressions the parts are of superb quality, and packed really well . Everything went together really well, though them chrome bolts are fiddly. In the end got small piece of wooden dowel, drilled tiny hole in the end filled at with vasseline, which held bolt to end of dowel and simply pushed them home with this. I found made it lot easier . Instructions say fit 16 type A bolts but only use 14 as 2 are left out for now . Anyway bin a real pleasure to do .And now the long wait till next pack. Happy moddelling and cheers mick. mogwai attached the following image(s): Builds hms victory, suzuki gsx 1300 R hayabusa, honda C B 750, lamborghini countach L P 500 S, tamiya 1/16 rc full option tiger 1 tank,

Nice start Mick. Thanks for the tip for those Fiddly bolts. I'm going to do that for the next set. Did you polish the bonnet and wing? Barry Building - DeAgostini HMS Victory, McLaren MP4-23, Suzuki GSX1300R Hayabusa, Harley Davidson Fat Boy, Lamborghini Countach

Hi Mick, As far as I'm aware you won't need all the bolt A's. You will be putting the longer B bolts in the last 2 positions on the cylinder head. You get 32 A bolts and 4 B bolts and the cylinder head uses 30 A bolts and 2 B bolts, leaving you 2 of each spare. Looking good BTW Steve
