And it's a cheapo Welly, lol. It has special meaning as I tried to redo it as close as possible to look like one my cousin Charlie had, RIP Charlie. This is what it started out as.😊

 

And now.

Thanks for looking guys. I do appreciate it, truly.🙏😊

For a Welly model the engine compartment actually looks pretty decent.  Did you redo it?

bloody brilliant as usual Geno! Along with the comments re the engine bay, have you fixed the headlights as well? Its hard to tell from the angles of the shots.

@geoff-jowett  Thanks everybody. Geoff, yes, the headlights are fixed. I couldn't leave those undersized lights alone, lol. The lenses are from a scrap GMP '70 GTO diecast.😊
