Yyyup …

The profile is now very nearly a match for the resin bonnett shell - which was made with a thin resin cast - no more than .050 - holding the shell with my remaining thumb …

Thanks Gramps pierre - gonna use the same peice of Renshape to lengthen the frame - and then Ive got re-site engine mounts … the Perma-grit bit is random toothed and is great for shaping the Renshape - also used a sanding drum and some sanding sticks …

You’ll recall that the bonnett on the Bradford Daytona Coupe kit was missing about 3 to 4 inches of length …. So once the bonnett was sawed apart i glued a peice of Renshape that is .140 thick on to the bonnett to produce the missing 3 / 4 inches … remshape bonds well w CA glue …

#10 goes back to surgery … for this procedure I’m using one of those neato razor saws that you can get on the UMM site - this new blade has teeth that curl around from length to width - its good for scribing a cut with tape as the guide … and in the last photo i’m about to cuT off my left thumb - that’s ok - we all came w two - right ??

Yes it is !

That is one nice radiator …

Fr Motorsport …

Thank you straight ! rad cap …. Last part … fini …

Andrew ! great ! post some Kit pix the minute your kit arrives from GB - i think that this is the only Sebring appearance for Mr Clark …

There’s one part left …

Wheels on for good now - epoxied the wh nuts to the axle - wheels can still move -

The parts for the windscreen were made a couple of years ago - i made a stone screen from some brass screen and nickel wire - then painted w Tamiya fl bl / semi gl bl … the windscreen can pivot on the posts …

Radiator screen installed - it sits in two brass slots at the base and is glued to two small pegs at the top - so it sits about 3/4 scale inch clear of the rad shell …

Made some if the suspension nuts with this Plastuct six sides .060 rod - drill, cut, attach, and paint … the pipes follow the sweep of the body lines - totally impractical but really cool …

Thanks again Mr B - panels on - left and right - with some bolts fr the AnyZ line -

I need to do some final engine turning - this time on two panels that cover the final lengths of the frame members ….

This is the mock up of the assembly - but before its attached …

So the spec part is a 2 peice affair made from some .030 Evergreen sheet and and some brass channel - w some plastic guides glued into the channel to grasp the pipes …
