Today I added the interior tub to the chassis unit and the windows. You will notice I scuffed the white number square as the drivers window took multiple goes to go in! The other windows went in first time!

Oh well, accidents happen. A little touch of white and it will disappear.

Stay Safe.

I like this. What is the approximate model year of this car?

Thanks Rob, the year was 1991 and this is the Monte Carlo version of the Ford factory car.

Nearly done. Just a few bits to fit, I carefully opened out a few holes so that there would be a direct fit first time out and it worked..

I didn't use many photo-etch parts as they were difficult for me to get off their metal sprue. What to you use to cut the these off? I broke a strong craft knife/blade and my sprue cutters weren't man enough!

All done, I could have been neater! I had a mare with the PE I couldn't find a tool strong/sharp enough to cut into the sprue.
