Here is the original GB thread. I had reached the stage where the front fenders, in particular the left one, were not lining up with the wheels. There were some other issues, like the windscreen, but the biggie was the frame/fender alignment.
I have had this kit sitting near the bench, always in sight, as a reminder that I do want to finish it. Anyway, a couple days ago, moon and stars aligned and all that (or I was getting a jump on New Years), so I got it out, dusted it off, and checked for missing pieces, etc.
Today I put on the rear wheels. The alignment with the fenders is close enough. I did have to trim about 1 mm off the end of each axle so the hubs would mount flush.
I think my next step will be to mount the right front wheel and fender, then deal with just the left front issue. I have plans/thoughts for all the other bits & pieces, although I'd better figure out what I can use for Brit Green touch-up paint -- the little bottle of whatever it was did not survive.
I remember building this as a kid. Great stuff. My dad built the 1/12 version too.
