07 March 2008:
I applied paste on the body.
Then I installed the inner tub inside the body.
17 March 2008:
After painting and installing the exhaust pipe, I fixed the body on the chassis.
13 April 2008:
I finished the engine compartment.
11 February 2008:
To paint the window rubbers, I applied Humbrol Maskol on the glass parts, only the contours to be exposed. To protect the back side of the glass from overspray, I covered the back sides with masking tape.
Just at the phase of being touch-dry, I pulled off the Maskol, revealing the painted contours.
I retouched the places where chip-off had occured while removing Maskol, with the tip of a brush. Then I installed the glasses, lighting, mirrors, etc. on the body.
