Questions about the MPC Streaker Vette

[JerseeJerry55]

Hello all hope everyone is well. Have some questions about the MPC Streaker Vette. For the engine bay how much sanding will it take to ensure I get a good fit? Also it shows in the instruction sheet that there are pins that the engine bay fits into but I see no holes that the pins go into. Also what else may I need to know? Thank you in advance.

There are two pins on the inside of the body, on either side of the cowl.  The engine compartment piece goes into the body, with the back of it contacting those pins.  

Besides flash removal which is needed on most kits (some more than others, of course) the parts do fit together pretty well, especially for an older kit that has been issued many times before.  The chassis has a couple of small tabs on the top side to locate it front to back relative to the engine compartment piece once that is installed.
