I started working on the roll cage and the parts supplied from the kit seem to be bit thinner/weaker. I thought about building my own role cage, but decided to stay the project manageable and use the parts from the kit.
Also, I cut off the safety net and replace the tip of the exhaust pipe.
I mixed dark gray and black to paint the roll cages. Then I gave a coat of semi gloss clear to make them...well, semi glossy...
I slightly modified the steering wheel and gave simple detail bits.
I think this is the level where I will stay with the project; I feel comfortable and do things quickly if I keep things at minimal.
I am toying with the idea of "how can I improve" with the roll cage... Maybe I will use different size of shrink tubes for padding materials.
These look funny, but I took the spare parts from my junk bin to replace the stock pedals. I don't think "heel" and "toe" is possible with this setup and that my replacement parts maybe wrong, but I am not too concerned.
Moving on to next steps! Go! Go! Go!
Radio unit was scratch built using various junk parts. The radio looks like it is from 1970's and can use more details, but I am moving on not to complicate things.
My home made decals are almost falling apart too!
