More details added to the battery box, as well as a small hatch below it from some thin plastic card with stretched sprue for a hinge:

I also primed the brass mudguard:

For this, I used Mr. Surfacer 1000, applied with a brush. The reason is that I wanted to prime it before attaching the cab to the chassis, but I didn’t want to use an aerosol to avoid getting primer over all of the cab. I was thinking I may have to decant primer, before I remembered I have a bottle of Mr. Surfacer at the back of one of my paint drawers![Smiling3 :smiling3: :smiling3:](/smiles/Smiling3.png)
Inside the cab again, I added the basic dashboard:

All the holes were made with punch-and-die sets, as were the two dials that are still present. It still needs plenty of details added, though, like switches, a filler cap and more.
