Thanks for looking in, guys, and your comments. Always appreciated ThumpUp
Andy, that's a very good tip BigGrin. All photos point to painting the radiators tub colour, while i like see them in black. Easily fixed if i change my mind.

Hi Mick & Malc,
Thanks for looking in. The kit is quite good, in my opinion, but will wait till it's finished to give my final verdict.
Here is today's update. Doesn't seem like much, but has taken me an absolute age Mellow Dash painted & decals added, along with gauge connections. Radiators painted and ready to build the front suspension up now. Master cylinders painted silver & white.

BigGrin Thanks for looking in guys ThumpUp , and your comments are always appreciated. I've had a painting blitz on the engine and gearbox (pics later on). Tonight i have been building up the front suspension. Now that may seem an easy task, but due to the size of the parts, and the natural tendency of springs to ..well spring, it has been really eye straining Huh
I have also painted the rear cockpit bulkhead. The great thing about this kit is that the sprues are coloured, so if you wish, you don't really have to paint anything but the shell (which is actually coloured white, so not much paint required there either Blink ).However, i think most people would paint, if only to change the shade.
Oh, and i built up the wheels while waiting for the paint to dry BigGrin.
Should soon be ready to mate the two halves of the cockpit and start to bring everything together ThumpUp

Anyway here are a few more photos...
