Looking good!

One thing I have noticed about the 1979 car is that the clutch and brake fluid containers moved around indicating different brake cylinders perhaps. This led to the big "hole" in the front of the cockpit also changed.
I don't know when this happened. I have found three pictures of this area.

hey Alex,

Working on this one myself..Well,off and on,you know

Update

All parts painted, took a river break and started building

Nice start. I too have this one waiting in the wings, good to see one (or two) started. One question, are you using the supplied MFH rivets? Do you think they are little oversized?
Cheers,

Sweet. That metal chassis just looks so nice and realistic. Now I'm going to dream about building JPS version I have in my stash in distant future.
You must have a secret to the building speed you demonstrate. Do you build each and every day ? How much hours per day ?

The secret of building with speed.

1. Put away the smart phone.
2. Turn off the computer.
3. Sit down an build.

Very simple
