Hi Stu, thanks for confirming on the trailer.

As for paint ... why not do rear fender same colour as the chassis rails?

Wheels black ... might be a tad too much black. Did a quick photoshop of it so you get an idea what it would look like. (I just copied and sized the black front rim so perspective might be a tad weird)

Thanks for doing that Stephan, certainly gives an idea of what it might look like.
Although I was thinking of gloss black for the chassis and wheels and then gold for the fenders with maybe gold hubs on the wheels, is that something you could photoshop up??

In the meantime a little progress:

Will see what I can do, but my super duper computer with tablet etc. is history and the powerbook with trackpad is a poor substitute ...

Nice job on the cabin interior!
