I cut the fixed tie rod free from the engine traverse. |
 |
| Now the poseable steering looks more logical..... |
 |
| I assembled the interior tub. |
 |
| Another view of the interior before it gets in the car. |
 |
| I applied two acrylic clear coats on the acrylic automotive paint. The checkerboard test is satisfactory... |

The radiator was too high for the lowered front end, so I cut off a section from the center part. |
 |
| This meant that the fan shroud and the fan would be obsolete and electric fans would have to be installed. So I cut two parts from a styrene tube and glued into place. |
 |
| The new fan housings were filled by two electric fans made from styrene sheet. |
 |
| Meanwhile, I prepared the tires (wider custom tires from a Ford kit) by sanding the thread zones. |
