Kev Thanks Kev. This is a very satisfying kit to put together. Especially because of the detail around the engine & gearbox.

The fit of the parts and the detail do look very nice and the extra paint you added really makes the bolts jump out

That looks superb, seems a shame to hide it under the bodywork.

Malc. I will be fabricating a stand for the body on mine so I can show off the engine, should be easy to do.

I've had a look at the body stand used on some of the builds. It does look straightforward to construct. Must give it a try.

Now that I've got all four wheels I can rough up the treads. The tyre is quite soft so plenty of care needed not to damage the sidewalls.
Two down and two to go. RM1 attached the following image(s):
