Great build! Let me be corrected if I am wrong, but the 002 chassis was developed specifically for the Cevert, and Stuart spoke on the 003 chassis.
Yes, you are correct. My understanding is the Ebbro kit for the hammer head nose is called the "002" and the kit with the flat wing nose is the "003". Even though in reality the 002 was Cevert's car and 003 was Stewart's car. In real life both cars started with the flat wing and both were converted to the hammer head nose. So technically this is a 003. But so people know which Ebbro kit I'm building I labeled it as 002. Clear as mud? :D

Update on the build:

I will not be able to work on it much, if at all, until almost the end of the year. I came close but won't quite be able to finish before Christmas.

Hi,

Nice work so far. The finished paintwork on the body looks very well done.

Also like the blue rings and lettering on the tyres. I assume these are all decals?

Cheers, Paul

Thanks.

I wish I couod take credit for those blue rings and the tire lettering, but they come that way. In the two Ebbro kits I've built so far the tires have been excellent.
