Looking good, however, you might like to know that the handle over the door wasn't used on US B models as far as I know. That must just be an Aussie thing. I really like the ceiling details and texture though. Keep up the good work!

Hi

Nice work.Love all the small details u adding.

you gonna have some cleaning to do around the doors I see.

What did u use for your overhead windows.

Still following your build.

Oliver

Oliver,

Thanks for following my humble assembly.

To simulate the windows, I use plastic packaging of toys that my daughter gets. Are very flexible and can be used in the process of vacuum-form.

As for the doors, they will improve, but there is always a small gap between these small parts ... :unsure:/>
