You have same from Takom? Why did you stop it?

You're doing a great job. I think your engine is exceptional.

Appreciate Rob.

And a little bit of job done after a couple of weeks break...
Engine and body assembled on chassis, seats, hood and some accessories painted..
Still some work to go through and then weathering

An actual grease gun that is a grease gun!
Very nice detailing, like how you painted the oiled steel plunger rod on pump!

 

[GCB]

Cheers.
Need to get the grease gun.. greasy now!

And I found out that the gas tank was under the driver seat!!

This "is" an impressive kit. Now I just need to get mine in the cue,.................someday, lol. Excellent SBS, G!

 

[GCB]

Thanks! and yes, it is quite a nice kit and fun to assemble!

 

[GCB]

Starting the final assembly

 

[GCB]

Pedals and dashboard

 

[GCB]

and weathering the bottom part

 

[GCB]

And after a fall, and damages repaired, added tools, spare tyre and jerrican.
Weathering in progress.

 

[BarleyBop]

And after a fall

You okay?
The engine is awesome. Will it be visible?

 

[GCB]

Yep, minor damages luckily..
Only the brackets which support the beams for the top canvas broke.. so, all good now

 

[GCB]

And the hood will not be glued, so can remove or keep open to see the engine (need to check if the windshield frame can support it).

 

[Jakko]

Good to see the damage isn't more severe than that. It could easily have been bad enough that there would have been no point in continuing.

 

[Belugawrx]

Looking great G !

 

[GCB]

Thanks Belugawrx! And yes Jakko... I thought it was the end of this model, but somehow stopped the fall with the feet and minor damages only.
