Looking for reference pics - USS Excelsior Filming Model

Hi,

I'm currently trying to build the shuttle/cargo bay thingamajig area on the underside of the Excelsior secondary hull. I've collected a decent amount of reference pics but nothing that shows the area along the back wall. So far I have one of the pontoon like structures built, the crossbar frame it connects to and am modifying the drop down tower. I'm just not sure how it all goes together. I guess I'm looking for a close up, down on shot inside the cutout.

Here are the pics I have, if anyone has something I don't that could shed some light on this area I would greatly appreciate it.

No, you need to talk to Captain Sulu (just kidding).

Maybe this will help - but probably not.

Re: Looking for reference pics - USS Excelsior Filming Model

Thanks for all the help guys. Thanks to a member over at SSM who pointed it out to me, the main part is from 1/12 scale tamiya Tyrrell P34 6 wheeler. Also used on the SW Rebel transport. There is a great thread here on RPF of a member scratching a RT
