Re: WIP: 1/4 mile Oval 'Moon' drag beetle

Christmas hollidays gave me the opportunity to work on the Beetle.

The Simpson harness is done, all the PE parts and bolts are placed. I'm sure I did something wrong when doing the harness, but forgive me, racing cars are not my 'cup of tea', it's the first harness I do.





Also, I wasn't so happy with the body, you could see the primer through the paint, especially on the edges. So, I wet-sanded everyhting with a grit 2000 and gave it a last coat. A lot better I think ...





The dashboard is now glued inside the body as the door panels. I'm now busy with the blackwah in the panel lines and grills, the last PE parts to put and then I can start the decals. Still a lot of work to achieve

This is looking really nice. I think that interior is just amazing.
