The nose skin and front radiator structures are built and attached along with new door box parts, designed primarily to support the outer side bodywork but also to lend some ridgidity to the tub and realism to the model.

The completed core tub is glued into the undertray/bulkhead/side boxes assembly.

Side bodywork is then folded up and glued to the core chassis' tabs. Here the final small exterior fender part is waiting to be attached.
