I also had to fix the number boards to the correct 45 degree version. I would normally use Details West metal but of course I didn’t have a set.
I took some measurements from another model and drew my own. One definite advantage of 3D printing. The print came out better than expected with only three tries.
I also tend to get a bend in the metal number boards. I was able to add more angle to the resin prints so they look much better.
Since this is a test shell I’m not going to add a lot of detail parts. It will also be Jenks blue. Next post should be paint.
