Hi, congrutalations again for your work. Unfortunatelly for me I`m absolutely disconnected of modeling, but just today I have got time to see what is happening around.
After see your rollcage work, I saw some mistakes that maybe wou would like to correct easily.

First of all is the front transversal bar on the roof. I think that is very rearwards and the bend is the opposite direction.
I also think that rear part of the roll cage (that close to the rear windows) is not corretc, with a lot of bend, and in real car it fit much lower, over the rear plate. I also miss other parts of the roll cage rear structure, as for example bar that connect central part of the roll with the rear wheel arc.

Other point is the position of the fire extinguisher...

I hope this pictures help you.

Hey Borjacho, will turn the fire extinguiser
About the roll cage, most of it will be hidden under the body, will see if i adjust it. (Btw thanks for the pics)

Just found this tread so I started right from the beginning. It's a great joy watching this come together. I really like your modifications and detail work, especially the machining. Body looks fantastic, keep up the good work.
