discussion Scottie WC56/57 (ST Build)

[scottie3158]

Not a great deal done today but managed to get the dashboard done. I also added the map board under the dash.



then a little bit of detail to the footwell.



there has also been a bit of work done on some other parts I will post some pictures later.

Does anyone know if there is an aftermarket pioneer tool rack available.

cheers Scottie

Hi Scottie
Looking really nice. Are there decals for the instrument dials or are they those film dials that fit behind the dash?

hi Jim, there are some decals and also a film that came with the etch. I will use a mix of the decals and some archer details. I tend not to use the etch film as I always find masking them when painting difficult.

Did a little work on the back. I had to replace the boot handles not because the kit ones were poor but i managed to loose both of them:anguished:
Replaced the hinged with some thin rod as I couldn't get the kit parts to line up, probably down to my building than the kit.



Next did the pioneer rack but not 100% happy so may do it again.



finally for today a bit of filler applied to the mudguards in readiness for when I need them.



cheers
Scottie

Thanks guys I had seen the verlinden offering but could only find a US supplier and wasn't going to pay what they wanted.

But I'm ashamed to say on looking closer I found the tool rack on the etch fret I am using doh:rolling:
