Hi, So as I said at the start of todays posts I've ended up with 5 extra issues, they are of no use to me so if anyone would like them for replacement parts or whatever and you live here in the UK then you are welcome to them. They are all still unopened in the film wrapper and are being offered free of charge - I don't want anything for them after all they didn't cost me anything so really I'm just passing them on Just to re-cap then the issues I have are 1 x 24 1 x 25 1 x 26 2 x 27 These issues have now found a new home  and are no longer available - sorryMay.

Hi Al, Thank you, well hopefully somebody will have some use for them on here, if not then I'll "pop" them on ebay as a charity auction May.

Hi, Picked up issue 29 from the newsagents this morning apparently there's some kind of shortage with issue 28 so she couldn't get a copy for me and it's still showing on the online store as out of stock but I did manage to find one on ebay although a little dearer at £11 but at least I have one on the way, and I can now pick this one up weekly as well along with the Jag May.

Hi Phil, Yes I have the floor plate, which you can see being installed in the vid link below if you are interested, but I have to wait until #28 to arrive before I can do mine  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VU4d6h0hNgQ

Hi, Issue 28 arrived via ebay yesterday so this morning I worked through this and last weeks issues Issue 28Radiator All of the parts went together with little fuss, although I was a AP screw short as they had only supplied 5 but I have plenty of spares so it didn't matter.

Hi, Issue 29Chassis Plate I tried various ways to prop the chassis up whilst I attached the plate, in the end I settled for using two car sponges!! the plate it's self went on fine - this build is starting to get heavy With any luck I should be able to pick up this weeks issue 30 on Thursday from my new favourite newsagents Thanks for dropping by May.

Hi, Picked up this weeks issue today Issue 30Water Pipes I found that working though the steps in a different order to what is shown in the magazine made "life" a little easier as I didn't have to constantly turn the chassis over all the time, so I did steps 1, 7, 2, 3, 8, 9, 6, 5, 12, 11, 4 and 10. Doing 6 before 5 and 12 before 11 made installing parts 30 c & g a lot easier You see, I'm learning this weeks lesson - It's important to read though the instructions before making a start as the instructions don't always follow the most convenient route!! Thanks for dropping by May. MFG attached the following image(s):

Hi, So this morning I braved the weather to pick up this weeks issue Issue 31Rear Chassis Plates My trusty car sponges will now no longer support the weight of the chassis but I did spot a set of four tall glasses in a local charity shop window which do the job just fine As for the build, some of the screws needed a bit of encouragement to line up with the receiving holes in the chassis but once I had a grip they went in just fine. Thanks for dropping by May. MFG attached the following image(s):
