As i did'nt make an F1 car last year I thought I'd make amends and start another MFH build.

Hi,
Just a small update but one which took some time! Replaced the supplied over scale radius arms with some more accurate metal rod, I had to drill out all the rod ends!!
Pic of supplied rod and repalcement:

Great progress Alex, I am really looking forward to seeing this complete. The replacement radius arms look better.
The exhausts look superb and the helmet adds a nice touch too.
Regards,
Steve.
