Auto Union Type C, MFH version: Body installation (I)

Got up this morning, had a couple of cups of coffee to work up the bravery, and glued the body onto the chassis. Only one minor glue glob needed fixing, but of course the fix made things worse. Next is to let the new paint (don't ask) harden for 24 to 48 hours, then work it back with sandpaper and polishing compound. I'll probably start with the 4000 grit. One step forward, two back... hopefully there won't need to be more paint.

 

Otherwise it looks pretty good and all the other panels still seem to line up reasonably well. Stay tuned!
