I spent a good amount of time drilling, cleaning and painting. the gearbox and rear suspension with brakes are done, I am not perfect, I did break one of the white metal parts. Now I’m waiting for the replacement, but I can still move forward. So… stay tuned -

Next on the Bench is a 1/12 scale 2003 Bentley Speed 8 by Model Factory Hiro.
