Those wheels and tyres look great Harry, much better than the originals in my opinion

Yes the wheels are great, but when I did some research most of the photos,
Show them with the supplied wheels.
I have made a start on corrections to the paddle and spade.
No exhaust are supplied, easy fix with wire.

Finally, I think I will invest in wheels and tyres. That change completely the model.
For exhausts pipes, I don' t understand this oversight.
Sorry for my spelling mistakes, I try to do better every day...

Top job Mr Serpent, that dash seems to be a must-do on these by the looks.
The cover for the windscreen is a nice touch too.
What cool little models these are
