If the tender is anything to go by its not looking good. The tender tank rear and front have straight edges. if you curve the tender sides as per the prototype there are huge gaps. Not too difficult to fill but you shouldnt need to. Its almost as if jim couldnt decide on the correct tender side profile and just left it to the builder

That chassis is exactly the same etch as is in the acme rebuilt version that I have which was designed by jim harris. The acme kit has a seperate etch for the valve gear. So the kit has certainly done the rounds as you say.

Its nice to see someone building a Right Price kit and being fairly positive about it. Most comments I hear are not good on these kits. I have the A4 and while far from perfect it is perfectly acceptable for less than £200.
