Yeah, might pay to 'blackwash' the chrome I reckon, it's a bit too shiny.

I started on the Cummins Diesel last night and the turbos are chrome plated, so they're having a caustic bath at the moment :lol:

Steering box and associated parts getting the flip on the chassis at the moment ;) pray

Slowly but surely!
Getting the chassis sorted out, not far off joining it all together ;)
The instructions are pretty vague, so it pays to have some mechanical knowledge sweating

Test fit joined together with 'Auslowe' fuel tanks in a rough position, mind you, these pvc tanks are 20 years old with the resin bits probably one of their first casts....
