Spud, this seems to be an unusual and quite interesting subject.  :)

Believe me, mate: when I was originally thinking about joining this Group Build (I also considered to join the Air Group), I thought seriously to pick one of this pots like yours one 8) ...  ::) but after all, I finally had to decide between either buying supplies & accessories or buying a kit & AM kits... at the end the supplies & accessories party won the match  ;D

 :P  My wife is going to kill me, but I´ve lived enough...  :P I´ve spent in supplies and accessories enough to buy 5 or 6 expensive kits... I´m dead meat  ;D I´m going to be put in the "bread and water" diet until January  ;D

But who cares...  ;D isn´t this an ADDICTION ?  ;D

I´ll be on stag duty here...  ;)

;D Oh, my man...

No, I was joking...  ;) she likes a lot having me mouth-closed with the plastic kits & this stuff... she knows that otherwise I would be wandering around the house snarling...  ;D

She likes this hobby, so by now there are zero troubles with the matter.  ;)

so painted the chassy last night and build the cab so i could get stuck into it today.

so the resin Doors are too small.

i done some searching and it looks like all the doors i saw were taller and to the top of teh window. so i build my own,
ill flatsand the bolts to even them up.
