Nick,
I'm not that clever I quite often decide to get something halfway through a build. lol

 

[Niho]

Okies.... my ....or90% of my DTMW order came in, all the wheelsets including these for my build here, i rivetcounted that they were of this pattern and as 'she's' front n centre I'd treat her lol
So, have cleaned up, will prime them.... onto Humber detailing next

Nick looks great sorry I missed most of the build.

Very nice Nick. Paint ties it all together well. The wheels/tyres were definitely worth the wait.
