1:9 DKW NZ-350 Update #7 - Fuel tank

In this episode I managed to assemble the fuel tank. Unfortunately, it wasn't without its challenges. Firstly, you can't install the fuel tank with the front suspension already installed. I skipped that step in the instructions because I couldn't wait to see the complete frame. Now I had to disassemble the front suspension to glue the tank in. It wasn't easy, because the whole thing is glued with CA, but I managed to cleanly separate the glued parts and then glue them back together.


I don't know if I glued something wrong, but to get the fuel tank onto the frame, I had to sand it a bit on the top with a nail file.


I'm not gluing the gear shift and its knob in yet, as they'll be painted separately.
