18May 23, 2012The engine bay received some extra details. I added the ignition wiring, I improved the shock absorbers and I replaced the white metal engine struts by thinner metal rods.

20May 23, 2012This is how the completed chassis looks like. Complete length: 7,5cm.
21May 23, 2012The body was clearcoated and left to dry. Next I added the front suspension and the rear torsion bar.

23May 23, 2012The wheels and tires are almost ready. They still need some sponsor logo's (GoodYear).
24May 23, 2012Far from finished, but I can't resist to try a dryfit with the parts available. Looking not too bad I think.

30May 24, 2012The tires received the sponsor logos and the centre wheel nuts.
31May 24, 2012Here the wheels are fixed to the McLaren. This is the moment when I screw the whole model to the baseplate to align the wheels and to finish the model without having to touch the car with dirty fingers...
32May 24, 2012The final assembly is near. All what's left to do is fix the rear view mirrors, the windscreen, and some retouching paintwork. The rear spoiler has to be fixed as well.
