I was feeling ambitious and had a go at part of the throttle linkage, can't believe I managed to find that spring in the carpet...twice !!

 

[Mark1]

Linkage complete, small cable to the carb to add.

Doesn't it just lol

Got some paint on, started with a black and white based, then some 4BO green and then I applied a lightened shade to highlight the top surfaces and a darkened shade to give some shadow on the lower parts.
