Hi all well as some light relief I'm going to build this, obviously me being me it will look nothing like the box art and will be built as relief from my other builds as and when I feel the need for a break, so build progress will be sporadic, trust me though I don't think it will be recognised as what it is when finished.  Ken's the name modeling's the game.

Looking forward to this Ken, I have one of these myself but mine won't look as exciting as I imagine yours will turn out to be.

Are you going to "Mad Max" it? Any images I post on my personal builds are free to be used and shared under Creative Commons Attribution license, which means you can do what you want with them, on the condition you mention I'm the author.
Happy building :-) http://www.model-space.com/gb/

I can't personally see where you're going yet but if I was to hazard a guess from the title it would be a Mad Max sort of direction

I should point out al the cylinder and head are just pushed on at the moment don't glue them on till the gearbox and crank case are in the frame you won't get the whole engine in the frame in one piece. Ken's the name modeling's the game.
