Yeah can't wait for the electronics to be up and running stevielewis.

Ooohh, I see it now; love the build

Here we add some detail to the left armoured panel as well as attaching it to the left bulkhead. Apologies for some exposure issues with the footage.

I'm up to issue 60 right now and the size of this monster is really coming together. I'm happy to hear about the revised windshield because I saw it coming. Mocking it up I could not get the original one to get in position without clashing with the shocks.

 

[joberg]

Yep, this is going to be big

 

[chefhawk]

Thanks guys for the likes and comments.

Here we add the Right armoured panel to the Bulkhead.

With all of those metal parts in the kit, I was wondering how much it's going to weigh at the end

Good point...Had a quick check and that info does not seem available, but its going to be bloody heavy.

Well, it's nice when the body is heavy so the shocks can sink a little bit on the car.

You know

, I think you have a good point there. One of the social groups reckon it could be 8kg in weight.

 

[chefhawk]

Here we add hinges to the (roof) rack. A quick and easy one today.

 

[chefhawk]

Here we build the replacement windscreen and attach a cog and motor to the Roof section. A bit more to do in this issue.

 

[chefhawk]

Here we add the slide, motor and rack B as well as some limiter switches and another motor to the roof part of the Tumbler.


A lot to do in this exciting issue.
