In issue 14, we get the parts for the right rear hub and suspension. Assembly is the same as in issue 12. I will say I do like the way the parts are protected in a clamshell package for each issue.  The one thing I didn't like was I only had three tires at this point and had to wait for my next shipment to make a stable chassis.

In issue 15, as expected, we get the second rear tire. Once assembled and attached to the frame, we have a complete chassis. Now we have a good idea of the size of the model. scraperjawa attached the following image(s): Current Builds: HMS Sovereign of the Seas /// Lamborghini Countach /// Eaglemoss BTTF DeLorean

In issue 16, we change gears and start work on the engine. We get the parts to build the transmission case. Assembly involves attaching the oil pump housing, the oil pan, and the axle mounts to the transmission case which comes as two pieces. Fairly straight forward assembly. Parts are mostly metal and good quality. scraperjawa attached the following image(s): Current Builds: HMS Sovereign of the Seas /// Lamborghini Countach /// Eaglemoss BTTF DeLorean

In issue 17, we get more parts for the engine and transmission case. Assembly involves attaching the sump pan to the bottom of the engine. The rear case is then attached to the transmission assembly from issue 16. The front plate of the engine is then attached and the starter is added. Finally, the bottom of the engine is attached. scraperjawa attached the following image(s): Current Builds: HMS Sovereign of the Seas /// Lamborghini Countach /// Eaglemoss BTTF DeLorean

In issue 18, we get the sides and back for the engine, plus the filters and manifolds. Assembly involves attaching the oil filters and manifolds to the sides of the engine. The engine sides are then attached to the engine bottom. Finally, the back of the engine is attached to the engine bottom. That is all until the next shipment.
