I'm building one of these. On looking through the instructions and the kit parts, I can't see how the chassis connects to the body, there's no visible sign where the two halves clip/glue together.
Any advice will be gratefully received!

I believe that, once you have the bumpers attached to the body, they serve as the resting points for the body to be attached to the chassis. It might take some finessing, considering the placement of the dash console.

Ah, now that makes sense! Thank you plasmatic, I only looked at those, not knowing whether to fit those or not! So the body just rests on in place over the bumpers, with no glue?
OK I've found brackets on the centre of each bumper, they slip inside the body, attach to the inner floor and glue up!

I still haven't built one of these, but when I have a kit with a similar construction, I usually just glue some kind of supporting system inside the body using evergreen strips or even just old sprue. Works like charm every time!

Thanks guys, I've sorted it, now to paint the body and roof lid!
