Been able to work on this beast in between stifling heat...late night sessions into the early morning are best-- thank God for vacation! Loads of subassemblies to help spread the work out...

The seat-- hard to focus on this one-- need my regular photo set-up back!

And where it's going-
Image

Maybe I am weird but taking close-ups like this helps me find the small things I might've missed like the misalignment of the foot troughs...will work on that in the nest session

Image

Barely the beginning of the side panel work I have yet to do...but it's a start-
Image

And the start on the engine...kind of a kit unto itself-

Looking good! How well/easily does this kit fit together?

That's my big worry since I know it was a short run kit...I haven't gotten that far but am hopefully and cautiously optimistic ;)
