For chassis no. 2 the only thing left to do before body-work, was to add the wheels and tires.
For chassis no. 2 I decide to use reissue wheels and tires. They look identical to the originals, but cost a lot less. Also, for me new wheels and tires is kind of important, as the entire look depends on it, in my mind..

A reissue wheel sprue can easily be identified by the rectangular hole on the round centre mounding (see red arrow). Originals have a round hole.


Chassis no.2 finished!
