Time for another update on this.The rear axle has now been fitted to the chassis and all the wheels have now been fitted with there treads which have been painted black.The wheels have also had the holes drilled prior to the nails being fitted.The coach body has also been given a coat of yacht varnish. The final picture shows the chassis temporarily put together and on its wheels. Al Spal attached the following image(s):

Started to fit the window framework to the carriage with walnut strips which gives a nice contrast with the main body colour.Once this was done the doorframes were constructed also using the walnut strips.This was repeated on the other side of the body. Thanks for looking Al Spal attached the following image(s):
