It looks fantastic! David G.

Looks great so far. Love the engine detail and wheel selection. David G.

Early 20th Century engineering- not too far removed from Steampunk, I love it! David G.

Nicely done! I built mine as an Aussie RHD model. David G.

Cool! David G.

Great Paintwork, excellent color choice! David G.

Super Solid! Excellent detail, I love the work you did on the rotors. David G.

These are awesome! They're almost as scary as the drag bike I saw a few years ago at a Phoenix Desert Scale Classic. I'll be watching this one for sure, David G.

Nicely Done! David G.

I love all the little details you're adding. I especially like the manuals, I think I'll borrow that for my dio. ...if you don't mind. David G.

It has a coolness all its own. Sort of Cowboy-Ganksta! Love the color too. David G.

Thanks Rusty, I'm glad you're enjoying it. David G.

Super sweet! David G.

Fabulous work as always Geoff! Thanks for taking the time to post it. David G.

For those of you who may still be following this build, here is another update. I had to make a minor modification when putting together the rear chassis sub-assembly. There were supposed to be locator pins on the struts that would fit into the brackets on the hoop. They didn't come through on the castings so I decided to drill the brackets and add some wire pins. Here then, is the completed rear chassis sub assembly. From this angle it reminds me of some kind of flying motorcycle from a Miyazaki movie. I keep expecting those "wings" to start flapping. With the rear chassis attached to the hull, it's "Wheels Down!" Of course I had to do some tweaking to get them all in even contact with the ground but there it is. On to the body bits. Thanks for taking the time to look and please feel free to post a comment. David G.

I scoped it out in the Under Glass section. Nicely Done! David G.

Dooood! Yer killin me with this! David G.

It's nice to see this at such a stage of completion Eric. Congratulations and Well Done! David G.

Thanks for posting this! The paint came out great! It also works as a good little tutorial. David G.

Good progress! Is that a PE chain for the tailgate? David G.

Beautifully Done! I love the color combination. David G.

That came out really nice. When I built mine I had some issues with getting the body to settle properly over the completed chassis. It ended up about 2 mm high in the back. It looks like you got yours to work out well though. David G.

That's a beautiful little car. David G.

Very convincing! Nicely done. David G.

Here's another quick update. Test fitting the rear chassis sub-assemblies. This is such an unusual vehicle that each stage of assembly is unique and requires a bit of study and practice to sort out how it goes together. In this kit Moebius makes extensive use of a tab-in-slot method for parts placement. All those little slots on the side of the hull have tabs that fit snugly into them. Each side of the vehicle is made up of about six or seven pieces. Something tells me there will be more test fitting in my future. I should be able to post more soon. As always, thanks for taking the time to look and please feel free to comment. David G.
