Brilliant attention to detail as ever.

Two words.

Do want.

Looks superb in the three quarter view, really captures the look of the EE Type 5.

I've not blogged on any of my projects before but I might do something on the DP2 tinkerings after Warley. The Silver fox body moulding is really nice as a starting point but there's lots that can be done. I've opened up and glazed the headcode boxes (I'm using a later Bachmann chassis with lights so it seemed rude not to!) but I plan to do the engine room windows (as mentioned), fit an etched roof fan and grille, seperate horns and anything else I can do.

Thanks Jon. I'm actually after using them to improve a Silver Fox "DP2" body. I've opened out the engine room windows and made glazing for them but they seem lacking without the frames. Think I can proabably use quite a few of Brian's other bits on the project too.

Hi..I think your Deltic upgrades are superb although they are beyond what i'd dare do with the Bachmann model. Do you know if there are etched available for the engine room windown frames?

I like the flaking paint on the headcode blanking panel! Other than that it's quite tidy for a scrapper.
