There's still a lot to do, but it's now running. I've spent a lot of time on it so far, will update as work progresses.

Now the bottom is assembled and running as it should.
Now all that's left is the tower and some more paint.

So it's very close to being finished... Better pictures will follow when it stops raining.

Another fine addition. You used the kit tires and wheels didn't you? Do you have a traction problems with them when driving it?

Thanks 👍
Yes, the kit wheels I've used have WPL rims mounted inside. They don't have much grip, but on hard sand it's okay, on the kitchen floor it can almost drift.
