It's just as well you tip toed in you might have woken the othersAs a patologic latecomer, I'm sneaking in on my tip-toes for this very interesting build.

Cheers Jakko, but your scratching is putting mine to shame.We’re just silent because we’re awe-struck
No, not really — your skill at building fine bits neatly is far greater than mine. I look at your pictures and wish I could do it like thatCheers Jakko, but your scratching is putting mine to shame.
Cheers Steve I hope so, not doing to much to the chassis as most of it wont be seen.Wonderful additions my friend. Well worth all the hard work
Jakko thank you that is very kind of you to say.No, not really — your skill at building fine bits neatly is far greater than mine. I look at your pictures and wish I could do it like that
Mick, thanks mate I hope so too.More great work Scottie, hope it doesn't drive you nuts and have an accident
Jim, very diplomatic mate I'm sure we agree.Hi Scottie
Looking good. Great scatchery.
As for the scratching skills of Jakko and yourself - in the words of John Wayne in Rio Bravo "I'd hate to have to live on the difference"

Cheers Andy.Great stuff Scottie.
Andy.
Cheers John, It is fiddly in places but not to bad.Not going to many additions ! Very impressive Paul, having read what you said about the chassis It's certainly not for me then
Nice going Paul ! Say, what is EZ Line ?The build is slow but getting there.
The engine has received a coat of paint and has been fitted to the chassis, it will be weathered later. I have added cables using E Z Line to the brake levers but forgot to take a picture.

The cab sections have been assembled with the grab rails replaced with copper wire. After a pre shade it has received a coat of paint. The seats were devoid of texture so they were covered in a couple of Rizzla papers and white glue and will be painted dark leather.

Just googled the stuff, think I've got the gist of it, I'll have to try some !Nice going Paul ! Say, what is EZ Line ?
Can't remember how but recently stumbled across this hollow tubing for fly fishing lures. Anxious to use this for future engine detailing !
They work quite well and can be wrinkled or torn.Very nice Scottie. That idea of using Rizzla paper to texture seats is new but looks to work well. Possibly better than my method of using Mr Surfacer 500.

Andy, very kind of you thank you.Your usual extremely high standard Paul.
