The Bond body is a prettysimple afair. A top and a bottom, the later includes the wheel arches, slot together nicely. Handily, there's even a seam running along the join on the real car to save us some sanding. Mind you, since it was a fibreglass moulding, I suppose that's not much of a surprise.
Interior detail is limited to a gear lever, hand brake, pedals, staeering wheel and speedometer. Plus "the dude", but he goes in later, after painting.
The canopy just sits in place right now. Part fit is all pretty good, especially for a kit whose origins are the best part of 40 years ago.
One nice touch is this piece of sprue to hold the wheelarches apart the correct distance, which can be cut away later.
The chassis plugs into the bottom, and fits perfectly too, which was a relief!
