Agora Models Shelby Cobra in 1/8th Scale, Part 3

 

The car has a tube frame which is assembled from several metal parts using screws. Building this we finally start to get an idea of just how big this model will be.

The suspension is all functional of course. I has to be, this thing weighs a ton.

Completing the other wheels... 

The tires are a snug fit. A short time in boiling water makes them go on the wheels easily.

As I did throughout, much of the parts have been repainted and detailed. Even though they do look good as they came, a small effort pays off.

With this work done, the car stands on its own four wheels.
