These packs contain parts 106 - 110 which will allow the completion of the model.


PACKS 106 & 107:

The parts included here are the rear centre body panel and the rear lights.

As before, the metal body panel had all decal markings removed before being sprayed with primer and dark blue.
The panel was fitted and two extra panels were made from sheet plastic, sprayed alluminium silver, and vent decals applied before being fixed inside tha panel on either side.

The lights were easily fitted as per the instructions.


PACK 108:

The rear window is included here.

The window part fits easily into the body but make sure there is no dust or marks on the upper engine cover. Once the screen is in place it would be very difficult to clean.


PACKS 109 & 110:

The parts included here are for the rear light housings and engine cover support chains.

As before it is advisable to remove any seams on the plastic parts and spray them satin black before fitting.

The engine cover can now be fitted to the car, AFTER attaching the support chains.

Attaching the engine cover support chains is straightforward but quite fiddly.
The task is made much easier by attaching them to the cover first, then to the engine frame using long nose pliers.

The final task here was the addition of the stripes and decals.

All in all, an extremely enjoyable project.
If you have not had a go at adding any modifications to your models, however small, give it a try.
