Zvezda “Luigi” step-by-step build
First step is to clip the wheels and tyres together
Step 2 is to join the chassis and the body support together with the wheels
Third step is to attach the bodywork sides to the chassis
Step 4 involves mounting the numberplate and bumper moulding to the rear engine cover and attaching this to step 3
The 5th step involves attaching the sunroof to the remaining bodywork piece and then attaching the roof and bonnet to the car
The final step is to stick on the windows to give Luigi that well known smile!!
Dapol Cl.73
We have had an email from Dapol today regarding their OO gauge Cl.73. Included is this snippet of information…
“Just to keep you in the picture, the CAD/Cam’s had a number of inaccuracies in them and these are now being worked on
urgently. We are aiming to have this model available for the end of Quarter 3 2014. Please be aware that this is an estimate only and with the way Far Eastern production is at the moment we cannot give this date as a guarantee.”
They’ll be here eventually!!
