Chipping away at more details. The steps were made from sheet metal riveted together using wire nails as rivets. I'm pretty happy with how they came out.

Steps primed and test fit

Making slow progress. I had another successful run at the PVLS blowdown meet. There were two other gooses there which gave me some great ideas.

I think I've decided to scratch build the cab. The castings are not all that expensive but I kind of like the challenge of building everything myself. I'm planning to switch to building the trucks for my riding car for a change of scenery. When I'm done with those I many change my mind about building the cab.

Lots of scrap jeepneys from which you can scavenge parts. :mrgreen:
