Here are a couple of shots that I took last night after I got the engine and rear end mounted.

looking good. keep it up. how did you make the seatbelts? are they fabric or plastic and did you do the sewing pattern?

Carsnut - I made the seatbelts out of 6, 8 and 10mm ribbon that I bought at a local craft store and, yes, I sewed each one by hand using white cotton thread.

Rev - I'm 5 1/2 months into the build at this point. I figure she'll be done and ready for her debut by February '06. The seat belt harnesses took half a day.

Cars - I've never even tried to sew belts for a 1/24 piece. All the hardware for the harnesses came with the kit.

the ribbon for 1/24 cars seems hard to sew considering it's too small. can't find PE buckles at my hobby store. anyone got tips on making them?
