Finally got a little more work done. Man I tell you, follow the directions to the letter... what looked like you could "jump ahead"...there is a reason you shouldn't. Ah well, more entertainment.



Washing and more washing. I'd actually be impressed if there is much "mold release" left on such an old kit.



Waiting for things to dry.



Priming suspension arms.



Torsion bars and suspension arms starting to take shape.



All the suspension arms in.



Phew!



Tons of metal clips for the suspension stops.



Suspension stops installed.



Top Roller mounts going in. They definately will be replaced with the AFV-Model units.



Clutch Actuator assembled.

Transmission with Clutch Actuator installed.



Another angle of transmission with Clutch Actuator installed.



Transmission mounted.



Starting to install the fake shocks. They are very loose and not sure how they will look once complete.


I've run out of plastic primer so it's time to hit the Hobby Store. Hopefully I'll get the wheels all primed and painted sometime tomorrow and start on the tracks soon.

Cheers
