She is now ready for the paint shop but I will need daylight for spraying so I will delay that for warmer weather.

She was `run in` today which showed her bouncing up and down on her front axle springing. So, I added `liquid lead` and sheet lead to her front end to balance her ride qualities.

This evening I tested her fine movement with an AMR controller. Despite being a 37 year old kit with an open frame motor of `yesteryear` I`m quite pleased. She should be even better with a ZIMO MX 645 decoder.
