Will leave for a day or so then get the decals down

Moving on, this fell together, I was really surprised ( and relieved) got a oil wash down on the under tray of the chassis and onto the engine. Windsor & Newton Burnt Sienna and Ivory Black mixed with odourless Windsor & Newton thinner.

Interior painted Ultimate black primer, dry brushed with Vallejo Bronze on foot wells, slight problem with one of the seat belt decals but 'saved' it by making it look like it's sitting twisted.

Wheel decals, there's always one! On this build it was the one that got away, luckily Paul has a spare and is sending me it

Great build, from a novice this kit was just challenging enough not to dishearten but challenging enough to inspire. If your looking for a quality kit for a first car build then this is recommended.
