Fit was great. The tires when viewed head on are pointy, kind of strange. I'm sure someone with more imagination could be a better than OOTB build than this.
Here's a link to more pics

Kit looks great. I'm in the middle of building it myself. How was building the chain. I'm still wondering if I should try it. I'm painting the kit chain in case the detail part chain doesn't workout.

Don't shy away from the chain. It is worth the effort. The jig makes easy work of it if you follow the instructions. Most importantly, Using the double sided tape on the end of a piece of sprue to pick up the increadibly small pieces. You will have a few extra small parts so it is OK that you will lose a few. I had about 15 pieces of every thing left in the end.
