I made up the rear bonnet today. The main body of it is folded up from a single etch with detail parts added. Here's a pic of it with the doors and door handles added;
The cut outs help when soldering it to the cab rear. And here it is soldered in place;
After attaching it there are a couple of riveted strips that sit along the base, which can be seen in the next pic. Soldering it in place was a bit of a pain, there are similar strips that sit along the base of the front bonnet which need to be fitted after the bonnet is fixed in place. I'll probably glue these... The front bonnet is just resting in place in this pic;
Thats all for the bodywork at the moment although there is still work to be done on it. Next job is to start on the chassis.
Paul.
