Coming along nice, Tankboy !!
Thanks for the update!
I hear you on 3D printed parts. They are nice, being clean and detailed and all, but the those wavy surface is really turn off.

A bit of work making this from brass but being RC will need to crash through things for sure

Wow its been awhile but have been busy, put paint on the bull bar and cow catcher just to keep me on track. Also scratch built the air cleaners and running lights and cast them up in resin, so will move on to the interior soon and have go at sculpting max at the wheel.
