Uh-Oh, another unlicensed Doctor in Da House!!! Nice work Mark and you won't even be able to see the pedals when you're finished. What are you going to use for filler???

This is why I don't do figures, wish I had the skill and imagination you obviously possess. Will his helmet clear the roll cage?
Imagination maybe but skills! That remains to be seen lol
Yes plenty of room for his head

Been tinkering with a few other things on the bench but my driver now has two arms sttaightened out,attached and filled , some small scraps of poly sheet have been superglued in to fill the bulk of the gap and then some mr white putty applied, a bit of tiding up to do then he will get a head and some paint,means I can now start on painting the interior. I had to raise him in he's seat a little so again some poly sheet was glued to the base and some putty round the edges,this will be sanded to shape.1000003812.jpg1000003811.jpg

Volvo ? With your user name I was expecting a mk I Escort.
Living in Denmark there are lots of Volvos here.
Your 240 is looking very nice so far.

A bit more progress, painted and fitted the seat and fire extinguisher and the dash is done, lots of painting black plastic black! Starting adding some colour.to the driver and ive also stripped the chrome off the wheels and painted them to look a bit more like a polished aluminium. 1000003883.jpg1000003882.jpg1000003884.jpg1000003885.jpg1000003886.jpg

Driver is about painted,going to give him a coat of gloss then apply a few washes to add some depth.
The body has had a coat of tamiya rattle can primer and will get a 2000 grit wet and dry sanding, also I've made two large holes in the boot as these will have fuel filler caps inserted from underneath.1000003888.jpg1000003889.jpg1000003890.jpg
