Hi all well I've figured it out, On the ladder frames which you slide the subframe on the sub frame was about a mill away from end of the ladders which through everything else out unfortunately that part was stuck with a capitol S but with a lot of jiggeling I've moved it the mill required so now back to work, I've added the inner roof lining and weathered it.





for some reason the weathering is not showing up in the pics very well, trust me it looks very grubby.

Hi all did a bit more on the interior.

Hi all last update before christmas.

Hi all well the bonnet is done (I must say I'm quite pleased with it)(not sure whether to put a few small dents in it here and there)

hi all here's a tiny update

Hi all well I've finished weathering the bonnet and wings and done the drive shafts (all fully working)

Hi all started on the drive train (grrrr its so fiddely took me nearly 2 hrs to install the drive shafts)

Hi all well I got £100 off my boss for xmas so ordered some gold leaf for the infamous ship a 1/16 revell VW Karmenn Ghia and managed to find German 1/8 machine gun for this dio 29.99 (bit pricey and it's not even a kit) I figure the effort I've put into this and the cost of the kit it will be worth it (yes it's a German machine gun but I figure they could have stolen it)

Hi all well I got a couple of hours in, here are my efforts

Hi all well I've managed to get a bit in today, here is the first coat of the dirtying of the underneath

Hi all I've pretty much had it with car kits, Ive been told I'm ruining a classic kit, feeling pretty deflated now, I thought this was some of the best work I had done. will stick to ships in the future.

Not ruining it, how many of these cars stayed in concours condition? I'd rather see it the way you're building it!

I agree 100%. What regular car stays in concours condition. Keep up the good work.

Hi all well this will be my last post on this one till at least next friday as off for the funeral in Scotland tomorrow.
I broke and lost part of the steering last night so had to make a new bit







gave the bottom another coat of muck and added a bit of grease








also (although my art days are way behind me nowadays)(and I never could do portraits)this is supposed to be Rene from Allo Allo, he will be behind a dirty window in the dio so I may get away with it, if not there's always plan B.

possible background may change a bit don't know till I start this is drawn to 1/8 scale measuring our doors and the hight of our sills.

Hi all well back tonight, and this was waiting for me.



I think it looks cool on the rear seat(tried the boot but its too big)



just have to find out which Machine gun it is and how it looked after a bit of battering,
