What Did You Accomplish Today? (Model Car Work)

The van body is on,. although not a good fit.(look when doors open) Doors on and working, windscreen is another thing? Too high! So cut a plastic to fit and build frame around it next time. Look closely at the last photo to see the edge of the cut plastic screen. -
Well done seeing one. We didn't get them here in the UK!

I've De-chromed an MPC T Buggy! I'm just fed up with scraping chrome off parts, so I'm using oven cleaner! De-Chromed front and rear wheels, soon to be gloss black! I had already started building the engine so a few parts escaped dipping! -
Due to rear raised lights, it was best not to fit a windscreen as glare would emit into the drivers eyes at night!
-
Thanks Bob just as I finished it! No windscreen as the lights are behind the driver, if there was all the driver would get at night would be the reflection of the lights. More pics tomorrow in the completed section!

A friend sent me a 3D Jeep, I have added sides today to make it into a van! Should the panels be on the inside or the outside? -

Nearly but not quite! Although painted it needs more work! Painting and photo's show up problem areas that need more work, plus I have knocked off a couple of bomber seats, but steering and rear seat yet to be made! Plus lights and number plates etc.
