Re: GB 60 red years: F40 LM 1:16

The lower part of the windshield frame needed to be reconstructed and attached to the rest of the body. I decided to try to recreate the original "tub" or "wiper tray" or whatever it is called as close as possible. First i made a masking tape template and cut out this part:


This was the glued to the window frame and the door sills:




Then the really difficult stuff began. I have no idea how I managed to cut the shape of this part to fit the windowframe but I got it spot on and also managed to glue it in place as well..


It was then trimmed down to fit under the hood.



That's all for now.
Next update I will start with the front subframe.
