Hello chaps,

Well, i thought it was time to revisit this now that i have my modeling mojo back :) I think i am up to facing it :lol:

So, out of the box it came. Two issues i need to deal with first up is those brass side plates that are giving me grief and to strip the white paint that i started to put on the interior.

I used oven cleaner to strip the paint. It looked more like the fire extinguishers had gone off (that's if they had foam fire extinguishers of course) :lol: :lol: ...

As a bonus though, which made me very happy, the glue that i used to attach the brass plates it seems was not a great glue, and just on a whim, i gave the plates a lift and they broke free! Now i can trim them down easy :D For once, it was a gift that something didn't stick :lol: :lol:

I'll progress with this more next week and move on to i am sure will be more hurdles to overcome :lol: :lol:
