Some more final adjustments. Man, there's a reason not many people do this kind of work. 8hrs on one tiny piece. I think I might have about 80hrs into the nose only! Based on my mathamatamics, I'm thinking I should have this body done sometime by July.....of 2025

But having befriended two guys on the 'net who've restored, owned, and one has scanned an entire 507, I'm set for any part I may need to make. Most concerning to me is why am I always meeting guys on the internet?

Here's a test section of the side grille I had printed to verify the size based on my measured opening. Considering this opening was based off the 1/18th scale model which I had enlarged, I'm pretty confident this car is true to size. The final front and side grilles are going to print!

More to come...

Merry Christmas all!

Cheers
Dave
