Couldn't resist starting on the Jaguar Wheels done Kit tracks are wrong in more than one way, guidehorns should be hollow as well as they are placed in the middle of the track link, it should be between every link. How they should look (for discussion purpose only) So I have ordered a track set from perfect scale modelbau, the only company that makes them. ACW

The kit is nice and straightforward but it does need some detailing, so thats what I'm trying to do at the moment . There's a step on the rear which is simplified a lot (sorry for the bad photo): This is how it should look: Mounted at the rear: Rear basket with mountings added: ACW

Wow Jack, she's huge!
Great additional detailing, really brings it to life. Like the new load, never seen one of those built before.

I stumbled upon this thread by chance and I'm glad I did. What a build and what a detail job, Jack. It's already a stunner even without paint
