Excellent walkaround photos whulsey. Thank you, they're sure to come in handy.

I started with the interior, which went together easily - 3 paper parts and 1 small piece of wire. If you compare the dash with whulsey's photo, MiB did an excellent job of recreating the instrument cluster and knobs. I did have to move the steering wheel to the left the indicated mounting point about 1/16" so it would clear the interior side. There was a location indicator on the floor that I hadn't noticed earlier for the doubled shifter lever. Interestingly it's to the right of the steering wheel - aren't manual shift levers normally placed to the left of the driver on right hand drive cars? Maybe that thing is an emergency brake.
