Pink foam. Darn, wish I had done that. Balsa blocks and filler took a lot of time. Are you going to install the lower gun turret?

Eric, glad you are also building an Invader! I am using Glennis wheels and tires. Very heavy duty, but adds a lot of weight. Should hold up nicely for you. I will have to modify the front retact to make the tire fit because I wanted a scale wheel. The CJ retract I found out is not scale.

I am almost done with putting together an 80" Yak 54 ARF, so am in the process of cleaning up the work table to restart where I left off on the A-26. But I am in the same boat as you Dave, it is so blasted cold here, I am turning blue! [&:]
