All finished. A fun, relaxing build although I did add a lot of extras, particularly to the engine. It's a kit I first saw about 50 years ago when I got the Lotus 49 for Christmas. The local hobby shop - Everybodies Hobbies, St Nicholas st. Ipswich (long gone sadly) - had both kits in stock. They were brand new at the time and I was just stunned at the sheer size of the boxes! The Lotus won out but I always fancied the Honda too. Now, 50 years later, I have both in my cabinet. Many thanks to all those who followed my waffle...
