Coming back after creative half year brake .
Front uprights are mainly from Tamiya 312 T. Not totally correct.

I made a vacuum formed copy of these plaster master form...

and painted it.

Seat is from Tamiya 312 T4

I was not 100% sure about the seat lay out, but I found photos showing a pure cast seat without any upholstery.

Other photos show black or red-black herringbone pattern, but these are revised old-timer race cars.
Motor and chassis are connected now. Rear suspension is improved but not complete.
