Those brackets may have been a pain but what amazing results. Even empty of the parts they carry they look really great and add so much detail. I usually get 7/8ths through my projects but you're going 11/10ths!

Those jacks are fantastic little assemblies.
I'd say thats why they fitted the long narrow tool box's on later versions, lots of those left behind on the field I imagine !!
