Re: 1/12 MFH Porsche 917 LH
Hi all,
Little update today...
Finished the dashboard and installed it. Took way longer than expected, but I'm reasonably satisfied with the result.
Last major interior part to complete is the fuse box/panel. The provided part is not the highlight of the kit, so I cut it up to use its parts on a semi-transparent panel, and later wire it.

Tiny update today...
Didn't like the tube-like part on top in the middle, and that will be quite visible behind the windscreen. It's an easy fix to create a better one.

You did a super job with the fuse box/panel. Looks 100 times better now.

Re: 1/12 MFH Porsche 917 LH
Thanks for your comments guys, much appreciated!
Yesterday and today I prepared all suspension parts for painting and/or assembly. Hopefully in the weekend I can start work on the bodywork...

Re: 1/12 MFH Porsche 917 LH
Finished assembling most of the suspension parts, uprights and brakes.
I also did some quick test fitting of the bodywork (no pics at the moment) -- so now I have a new biggest fear... not the decals, not the doors, but getting the rear cowling to fit. Anyway, that's a later concern
