Converted...........
Brief mention of the Chris Cornell etched kit for the Leeds convert(ed) cars in an earlier entry, well the festive boredom set in so thought I'd start fabricating a few of the major sections up ready to build up later, didn't quite happen that way.
I'm going to have to build it slightly differntly to how the instuctions suggest to make painting and glazing a bit easier, I'm not certain yet but may build it with a seperate chassis, comprising the platforms, bulkheads and truck, which will slot into the main body unit, roof will be removeable to glaze and populate the interior
Still needs a fair bit of fettling, but all in all, it's going together pretty easily, I think from the photos you can make out the style of construction, the sides and ends being built up from laminates, hardest part so far was getting the raked front upper windscreen in and looking right..
All in all there's a fair bit of brass and I've got a nearly complete lower saloon spare as well.
