Thanks Marco......i don`t particularly like this part of a build with cars, the interiors always look boxy.....be a different ball game once the panels go on  You right Boots, but in this case, different of tanks, you can see the interior!  |

Thank you all kindly chaps and good to see ya John
Body work had two very fine seem lines around the front wheel arch and the back of the rear fender, some gentle scraping with the back of a blade and some 3600 micro cloth and all is well....., gotta say the upper body fits like a glove.
 
........and a coat of white primer, this was rubbed back to remove the grainy feel using Halfords compound cloths........it now feels like smooth white plastic ready for the Light Blue ................however..........i have dropped a clanger  , on the door sides you`ll see 3 molded bumps......2 have to be removed for this particular car......i forgot before priming  .
No big deal but i gotta cut them off really easy coz they sit right on a panel........can`t afford any slips or mishaps 
More soon......need to go thru the paint and build stage now for the engine area and rear suspension  |

It's a beautifully shaped car Boots and it's looking a very slick build too. As for the bumps, a new blade and a steady hand and you're done |
