Thanks Wayne for the history supplement, much appreciated!

Here are the results of my latest efforts.

Lots of parts make for a spindly result.

Of note: the radiator is not glued in yet as the front of the engine needs finished first. Also, I'll have to make and fit radiator hoses via the Mark I eyeball method as there are no patterns for them.

I replaced the paper steering wheel rim with one made from bead wire. I do this often, but don't always indicate so.

The seat post wrapped by spring was replaced by evergreen rod for strength. The spring was made from a different gauge of bead wire than the steering wheel rim.
