Bodywork on (some will come off).

Nose was a right pain so will need a repaint to get the finger marks and glue off. Otherwise, pretty happy.

Then onto the decals. These could be tricky, they're 40 years old...

Mario "Creme Egg" Andretti makes it look quite big, but Andrettis are smaller than you remember him.

I have some, but thank you. As an avid ebay/boot sale/geezer up a dark alley buyer, I've had to restore a few. Let's hope it works.
