A lovely dashboard and a great addition of the brake lines.

thanks guys i have now painted and built the engine i have put banjo fittings on the brake calipers and some hex. head rivets on the cylinder heads i broke a couple of the pins to fix the sparkplug leads i had two choices either drill a hole and put pins in or drill a little larger and put the tubing in the hole i went with the latter as i thought it would look better the clear tubing for the injectors i thinned some clear yellow right down so it looked like water with just a tint of yellow and pained it on the tubing after i painted them i thought it might have looked better if i let it run down the inside (something to experiment with at a later date) i am now going to do the suspension and hubs

and the engine fixed to the chassis

More great work, Syd, the engine and rear chassis is looking good and busy now with the kit's already decent OOB detail being nicely beefed up by your additions.

That is looking absolutely superb Syd, just don't go knocking it off the table, at least not before the finished pictures.
