Update....

Overall body shot...G-nose is on.....


Though, not without issues.....the alignment of the headlight buckets was quite poor...


After much carefull sanding and shaping, it looks much better now....Also visible is my new radiator panel. I opened up some holes which are on the 1:1 cars as well....


Ok....onto induction. I was drawn between fitting the "stock" twin SU carburetors, Fuel Injection - ex Ferrari, or triple Solex/Weber's....
The Solex won out....
A little back ground on them, and how I happen to have 'em....I have had them for well over 30 years....(make ya feel old..?.....)
Yes, I once had an original 240Z Safari version.......the triple's are all that remain.
Please do not ask about the rest of it......too many sad memories...I think it got "cleared out" during a house move long ago.....
Anyway, being so old, they had signs of my early modelling career all over them.....LOTS of glue.......Major clean up time.
They did clean up thankfully.......


Now, I don't have the inlet manifold for them....so, I found some suitable sized spru, not having the correct size plastic rod on hand..and started on a manifold...


I made a very crude "jig" to hold them in place whilst glue dried.....


End result...well, almost. This is where I'm at. I added a stiffening beam, as most pics I've seen have similar...


I'm pretty busy the next day or two...life issues.....so I'll update again ASAP guys..Thank you for tagging along with me..
More soon....

cheers
