I feel the need to build another big Fnord and detail looks pretty good on this kit. Any chance of a squizz at the underneath of the chassis?

almost finished, found a problem with the horns, once fitted the grille wont fit so had to remove them again! and after fitting the body found that the engine bay doesnt seem to sit square inside the mudgaurds, cant find why this is but the pic on the box is the same so im guessing that its not something i have dun

Don't you just hate those unforeseen final assembly dramas...
even more annoying when you are building out of the box.

Looking good though - love the colour.

Coming along nicely, love the colour.

Thanks for the heads up on the engine bay, what a pain. Looks like there will be some assembly mods when i get around to mine, i bet the Comet is the same too.
