Sorry fellas but another car build is in the making.............whilst i`m waiting on ideas for the other Nissan base i decided to crack this puppy open..... The box art..... The wheels are staying this colour and all the tyres have been scrubbed down to give a more natural look to them.... Hope to get a bit more of this prepped this evening and thanks to all interested parties ;D

Ok...........a few more test purpose pics just so`s i know only good things are gonna happen before final assembly Just a couple of shiny bits on the engine and the rear shocks attatched.....(all D/F`d of course !!! The instructions tell ya to paint the chrome but i actually like the top shiny bit as it is.........hmmm, one to ponder on methinks!!! The two oil coolers on the sides need a coloured surround as there is a seam running right across the top of them both!! ............so they`ll need to be rubbed down in which case i`ll loose the chrome plate anyway!! I will proably replace the two pipes that run from the top part to the tops of the O/coolers.................they`re about 1mm to short anyway.............might use a coloured rubber tubing !! Thanks again fellas

Lovely, really looking neat, great job fella.
Rubber tubing could be the answer mate or bridge the gap with a slice of styrene rod?
