The chassis is pretty much done now, just a pit of PE to add but I will leave that until later in the build. More parts that were missing was the exhaust, and spare wheel carrier one part was broken. Also added straps to the fuel tank and a chain to the filler cap which you cant see in the picture.
Next up is the cab. This is going to need a lot of work. The moulding leaves a lot to be desired with heavy flash and imperfections around the window openings. The front grill is useless with parts of it incorrectly moulded so they are not straight as you will see in the picture. Plus the panels will need to be re scribed.
For anyone who has built a model like this what is the best way to mark out and secure the clear sheet that is supplied for the glazing.
cheers

I must admit I'm not looking forward to this bit
