Some progress has occurred with the 24/1 as I have had the filler out for other projects and did the filling on this at the same time.

Changes to the Bachmann bodyshell so far :

• 
   
  
• Replace roof domes with headcode boxes - Brassmasters resin castings
  
• Replace side grille with 5-hole plate - Brassmasters etch
  
• Fill holes from disks - filler
  
• Fill recesses on roof - filler
  
• Add vents above doors - Brassmasters etch
  
• Add blanking plates where headlights were - Brassmasters etch
  
• Fill steps on bodysides - Brassmasters etch
  
• Cut Tablet Catcher recesses - plasticard and plastic strip
  

I'm pretty much happy with the body now, next to the paint shed!
