The rear suspension is progressing. I'm going to add some carbon decal around the brake cooling ducts.

Coming together very nicely Malc, looking good and glad your missing pack 16 has finally turned up - onwards and upwards as they say?!

Looks very nice indeed and those little extras you add like the carbon fibre decal can make a very nice addition to your kit.
Happy Modelling

A little more this week. Completed the rear left and added a little carbon on the duct. Also thought it would good idea to put a bit of silver on the oil cooler fins. ( Some pictures I've seen do seem to have that appearance ).
I haven't bonded the oil cooler onto the gearbox yet as I want to fit the hoses first, contrary to the instructions
.

Well done that's looking fantastic with all the extra detail you have added.

Unfortunately my build has stopped as the local suppliers have not sent me any issues in almost a year and despite e-mails and phone calls all I get is promises :(

I am now at a loss as to what to do

Rear suspension complete. I've replaced some of the more visible fasteners with bolts. Just think it looks a bit better.

Great collection of parts and assemblies building up. Now that I've got all four wheels I'm going to rough up the tread.

BigGrin She's starting to come together nicely Malc, dont go too rough on the sandpaper on the wheels they rough up quite quickly. Be careful with the pre printed Good Year logo's on the tyres as they are easily scratchedCool
Current builds:-C57,Zero, Lamborghini Countach, Caldercraft HMS Agamemnon,Robi,R2-D2, MFH Cobra .

Thanks for the advice. The tyres do feel quite soft I'll take extra care with the logo's.
