...I'll be watching with interest.

Hi made a start on this planked some the floor, still bits between seats to do, I put a wider plank down the middle because gap not work out to well otherwise, and thought it would look neater than 2 thin ones,it's needs sanding down to level of others yet.made the 12 seats,just make sure you make left and right hand,the tab slots need filling,never ending job on these kits,and need to sand radius to seat fronts yet,I'd not want to sit on seat with Sharpe edge,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, built, Mclaren M P 4 - 23.

I'm very tempted to build one of these and convert it to run on my 32mm gauge garden railway...
I'll be following along with interest.

Hi thanks to all who looked in and left comments much appreciated, done bit more to this, finished planking floor by adding the foot planks between seats, planked one side and started the other, don't cut any strips to dimensions in instructions it's all rubbish, measure what you need from model, and now the first of many fit issues I expect,the seats don't fit the 3x1 strip is in the way, I decided I'll file clearance on all the seat legs that side, you won't see them when seats in anyway.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, built, Mclaren M P 4 - 23.
