Thank you so much muckers! After decided that the interior is good as it is now, I closed the hull and started to add more from suspension and some bits and bobs here and there. So far, so good. Hope next weekend I can finish the build fase. Hope you like!       BTW, I didn't post so much here because my son decided to start a new life with his girlfriend and me and Mrs. V are helping the young couple to buy somethings, fix some problems in the new apartment etc. We're very happy!!! Cheers mates! |

Hi mates! A bit longer without being here isn't true? Well, I have good and bad news: The good one, I painted the first color, build the (1 gazilion parts) wheels and paint the wheels too: Hull    Wheels   The bad news: After 20 years (yes, 20!) my trusted compressor stopped work, just when I was applying the second camo color... A pic of the hero:  I bought a new one yesterday, and it's in the way. I hope I wll receive it next friday or saturday. It's almost the same, with a better technologie:  Hope you like the paint, the new tool etc. ACC&?W |

Lovely paint job Marco . Shame about the home made compressor though. Maybe get a new fridge and use the compressor from the old one eh ? I know, get that hat and coat  |

That's a good first colour mate, the kit certainly takes a fair amount of paint! Shame about the compressor but 20 years service is very good indeed. I think my one is also dying after about the same amount of service, seems that the piston is worn as I'm getting tons of oily water in the moisture trap of late. The new compressor looks smashing though mate |
