I think, in the day, they would have gone for a "tight" two-seater but the single looks good.

Ok trying flicker
The red bits framing the seating areas will have padding when I find something suitable.

Will you be adding a "drip pan" under the motor as part of your display?
Also, great work on making this model look so easy to build.

Hi all, done a lot of work on it over the weekend.
I've got big ambitions to make the throttle linkages up (we will see how far the ambition gets compared to how much skill and patience I have) I must say I'm quite pleased with how shes looking at the moment.
Ps look what I just ordered (cant wait for it to get here)

Exceptional work!
I still can't get over how you can build something that good then relegate it to "the Spares Drawer".

It's a lack of space, and once it's done I loose interest almost immediately.
