the shell looks good.
Those arches are beautiful. They're the Zcars ones right?

 

Keep up the good work!

I'm ordering my kit next week.

Looking good Harry

don't forget you will need to fit the rear frame and carry out the 4 wheel alignment before the final fit on your arches to make sure everything is in the correct place
