STAGE 12:
First, retrieve the nose floor assembly, part 10A. Locate the rocker arm mount part 12A and press into place in the two smaller holes near the wider end of the floor panel.
Locate the anti-roll bar parts, 12B and 12C. These press together and will only fit one way. Fit this assembly to the wide end of the nose floor and secure from underneath using 2 x JP screws.
The nose cone bottom reinforcement bar, part 12D, presses into place in the two small holes in the floor panel, in front of the shock absorbers.
Locate the accelerator (gas) and clutch pedals, parts 12E and 12G. 12G, the accelerator, fits in the right hole on the floor panel and is fixed from underneath using 1 x DP screw.
12E, the clutch pedal, fits in the left hole on the floor panel and is fixed from underneath using 1 x DP screw. Locate parts 12F and 12H and fit the smaller white bias adjuster 12H, to the pin on the brake pedal 12F. Make sure the horizontal pins on both parts are pointing in the same direction.
Fit the brake pedal assembly to the centre hole between the accelerator and clutch. It will only fit one way. Secure from underneath using 1 x DP screw.roymattblack attached the following image(s):

STAGE 13:
Retrieve the nose assembly, part 10A. Locate the brake adjuster cable, 13K and the bulkhead part 13A.
Fit one end of the cable to the top of the brake adjuster – the small white part on the rear of the brake pedal. Fit the other end of the cable to the pin on the upper end of the bulkhead part.
Fit the bulkhead to the floor of the car and secure with 2 x DP screws from underneath.
Locate the two master cylinders, parts 2 x 13B. They are identical. Fit them to the floor and bulkhead using the two holes on the left of the floor, as looking from the front. Secure from underneath using 2 x DP screws.
Locate the clutch cylinder, part 13C. Fit this to the hole in the floor next to the previously installed brake cylinders. Secure from underneath using 1 x DP screw.
Locate the hydraulic lines – 2 x 13M, and the line fitting – 13E. Fit the lines to each end of the fitting and press the fitting in place on the top of the left brake cylinder. Fit the end of one line to the outer pin on the left of the bulkhead, and the other line to the pin on the floor in front of the other brake reservoir.
Locate the hydraulic line and fitting, parts 13F and 13L. Fit the line to the long pin on the fitting and then press the fitting in place on top of the second brake cylinder. Fit the end of the line to the other pin on the front left of the bulkhead.
Locate the hydraulic fittings, parts 13D, 13G and the line, 13M. Part 13D fits into the rear hole on the top of the clutch cylinder. Fit the line – 13M to the pin on the fitting, part 13G and press the fitting into the front hole on the top of the clutch cylinder. The end of the line fits on the pin on the floor in front of the cylinder. Locate the brake reservoirs, 2 x 13H and the two caps 13L. Also locate the clear pipe, 13J. Press the two reservoirs in place on the tops of the brake cylinders.
Fit the clear pipe onto the small pins on the sides of the two reservoir caps and then press the caps in place on top of the reservoirs.
Now retrieve the main body assembly and place it upside down. Turn the lower nose assembly upside down and fit it in place on the front of the body taking care that the long brake lines exit on each side next to the suspension arms. Fix the floor in place using 4 x IM screws in the front 4 holes, and 2 x DM screws in the rear two holes.
Fit the two chrome suspension pull rods into the locations at the ends of the upper suspension arms on each side of the body and fix in place using 2 x JM screws.
This stage is now complete.roymattblack attached the following image(s):

STAGE 14:
Retrieve the main body assembly and the upper side panel from this stage of parts, part 14A. The side panel clips in place at the upper edge of the cockpit opening.
Locate the bracket, part 14C and the pack of CP screws. Fix the bracket in place in the two small holes on the lower side of the body. Make sure the angled end is at the top.
NOTE: You may find it easier to prop the model on its side using empty boxes or similar.
Fix the bracket in place using 2 x CP screws.
Locate the top bracket, part 14B and fix in place at the top of the body using 2 x CP screws.
Locate the jacking point, part 14D and fix in place at the bottom of the body just behind the suspension arm using 1 x CP screw.
Locate the two suspension upright parts, 14E and 14F. Fit the two parts together. They will only fit one way. Fix them from behind using 2 x HM screws.
Locate the brake duct, part 14G and press it into place on the upright. It will only fit one way.
Fit the two pins on the upright into the holes at the end of the upper suspension arm and the end of the steering rod. Make sure the axle stub is facing outwards. Fix in place using 2 x KM screws.
Turn the model up the other way and using the small cable tie, part 14H, secure the brake line to the end of the suspension arm. Cut off the excess cable tie.
Fix the lower pin of the upright into the hole in the end of the suspension arm and fix using 1 x KM screw.
Store your model safely until the next stage.roymattblack attached the following image(s):

STAGE 15:
Retrieve the main body assembly and the inner bargeboard part 15B. Also, the pack of CM screws.
For this stage, you may find it easier to carefully prop the model on one side. This is only a SUGGESTION. You may do this if you wish.
Fit the bargeboard in place on the ends of the support rods and fix using 2 x CM screws.
Locate the outer barge board parts 15A and 15C. Fit these together and fix using 2 x MP screws. Fit the outer barge board in place over the inner barge board part with the leading end behind the outer front wing plane. Fix in place using 2 x MP screws in the main barge board and 2 x AP screws through the front wing plane.
Locate the brake disc parts 15D, 15E and 15F. Assemble the parts and fix together using 3 x SP screws. The parts will only fit together one way. An OPTIONAL suggestion for some added extra detail is to colour all the vents around the edge of the brake disc using a fine black marker pen. Position the disc over the end of the stub axle.
Locate the brake caliper and retaining rods, parts 15G and 15H. Assemble the parts by pushing the rods through the holes in the sides of the caliper. Fit the caliper to the front upright and secure using 2 x CM screws. Turn the model over and trim the brake line tube to fit neatly on the silver pin on the edge of the brake caliper.
With the model still upside down, remove the screw nearer the front of the upper suspension arm mount. Locate the angled barge board mounting arm part 15J and one SM screw. Fit the support arm between the outer end of the lower barge board mount rods and the screw hole just uncovered on the upper suspension arm.
Fix the rod in place using 1 x SM screw with the outer end of the rod hooked in place on the barge board mount rods.
It is suggested in the printed instructions that the front wheel can now be attached but it might be advisable to store the wheel and the washer part 15I and the fixing screw 3H safely until later as the wheel is heavy and may be an obstruction for building later stages.roymattblack attached the following image(s):

STAGE 16:
This stage of the build is identical to stage 14 but reversed for the other side of the car. There is no need for a lengthy post here. Refer to stage 14 for assembly details bearing in mind the parts here are numbered ‘16’ instead of ‘14’ as before.
Store your model safely until the next stage.
