Hello,

Tamiya moulded the upper body in one piece
I cut the two rear parts covering the engine.I began sanding those parts down (one made now), as they are too thick
Here you have a pictures from the two parts. Left one is left how it is and the right one is thinned
This is the right side of the body
Tamiya forgot to make a hole in it to allow the
I made the hole using a 4mm drill. Then sanded it to have a perfect round hole
This is the body
I also cut the nose off
The underpan/chassis
Also cut the front part from the chassis
Here the body simply put together with the chassis temporarely. You also see the "bridge" Tamiya moulded between the rear body, where radiators are.

Don´t worry, Jamme:
I`m sure that more than one of us is following your WIP trought forum. Only problem is that amazingly I tried several times to register without result, so is not possible for me congratulate you for your work in the forum. Please, keep us informed of your updates.

Hello Jose,
Thank you for looking!
I'm not gona to "super" detail it, as well it depends super detailling.
I will use the photoetch set and the decals from Studio27, but will make a little bit of scratchbuilding by myself.
I hope you will enjoy the WIP.
Greetings,

Jamme

Are you planning on super detailing it (adding PE parts and so)? I've read that there are some sets in the market for this model.

Thanks for sharing.
