Great looking dio.

May I do a suggestion ; mostly these days there is also a suction-unit installed in workshops like these. Most suction-inits that I have seen are located against the wall and the ceiling, if test-runs of the engine are being done, a wide tube is connected between the unit and exhaustpipe of the car.
Btw, suction-unit is nothing diffucult, just a square block with a grille.

Thanx for the comments much appreciated to know that I'm going in the right direction with my models.

Nicolma, the mechanics and tools are the Tamiya rally mechanics set (1/24) straight out of the box.
I was thinking of adding an air hose to the wheel fitter but had nowhere for it to attach at the other end, Might have to scratch build the air compressor though.
I will post a couple of pictures later in the week.

Nice one. Where did you pick up the tools and mechanics? At least you've taken the plunge, I keep thinking about it but doing nothing.

HEY,
Looks great, the only thing it needs is an air hose and some tool boxes and stuff, otherwise its awsome.
