    On it’s way over from the Uk, a nice shinny!!!!! 4F from SAN Cheung. Looking forward to giving this model the Kimmy treatment.

    That’s Gold,
    Nice looking 4F Kim
    The one biggest improvement to the looks is to replace the slot head screws that form the crank pins.
    I’m guessing it’s going to be BR and a scruffy weathered look

    Hi Chris, bit to bright for my liking and correct, several shades of grime to be applied along with some nice sounds and a crew.
    Yes I noticed the screws straight away, not sure what the threads are to be able to replace them.....is this something your have done before?

    Hi Kim
    No I haven’t done one before my 4Fs are detailed Lima body’s with new brass chassis with Slaters wheels etc.
    I have seen a San Cheung 4F with new crank pins I think it had new etched rods as well it was on RM web had to take a second look at it when it said Was the RTR brass one as without the screws you woulnt pick it as the RTR model had a quick look but can’t find the thread on RM for you at the moment.

    Oh man ..... :facepalm: Why did you put that up. It's a beauty. Very envious. That must have cost you a pretty penny but worth it. Enjoy ......
