Aoshima Kawasaki 900Z1

Slow progress. Dry fitting the rear wheel and swing arm to the frame. Noticed that it is not good to keep a model in box for eight years. Left side bolt for chain adjustment had broken, so had to replace it with a new. Also noticed that the reaction bar for the rear brake is missing, either I have lost it, or it has been missing from the beginning. Fortunately, it is just a plain bar, so easy to fix. Now I have been painting the unstripped chrome parts with Alclad, hope to show some results in near future.

Getting there, already on two wheels!

All the parts are now painted, but quite a few still need to be glued on.

Continuing my monologue Next one will be in completed -section.

This is one of those rare model builds where the fact that this is a model is very difficult to discern. Even the metalflake in the paint seems in proportion.

Good job!
