Re: Citroen 15-Six "Traction Avant" - 1952 - Heller - 1/8

Major update, this time: the engine has been built in and all cabling has been connected.

What I have done:
- the battery has been attached to it's casing and the battery cables have been scratch-built. I have re-used the clamps and I connected them to home made cables,
- I made a connecting rod between the carburetor and the gas pedal lever,
- all cables which have been added in the previous steps were connected,
- the ignition has been fully wired, according the electric scheme of the actual car (this scheme is indicated in the plan),
- those reading and following this thread very closely have already remarked that the engine, firewall and cabling got some more weathering. Unfortunately this is not always well visible in the pictures, I need to make some new pictures in daylight.










After taking the previous series of photo's I noticed that I forgot to add the fuel filter. This issue has now been met:



Next up: completing the front suspension.
Enjoy!
