Started on my Xmas Wild One re-re
 Driver body is not one of my best (but not bad for just having 4 colours - black, white, yellow, red) ...

I too have one of these as a Christmas Pressy to myself, with a re-re Brat for company (got them both mid year, both will be new year builds)
look forward to the updates on this .....andy..... If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem mate

Decals & body on, and it's finished
