May I suggest fully moving and blinking, actuated by the dash switch?
From observing your skills that should not be too difficult for you.
Amazing work, just as interesting as watching a full size car build.
I was going to say "real car" but that would be an insult to you work.
If you make those semaphores blink make sure it is a dim 6V blink.
Semaphores don't blink they just light.
I could see using an LED hidden inside the gas tank and use fiberoptics to make one open semaphore light.
I can send you some extremely thin fiber light guides if you would like to give it a try. |

The body is now closed, and i can only glue the semaphores in from outside- as non working units. Maybe next model. :D
Luggage got some colour:

Im working on the roof rack fixings, and mirror. I had the searchlight/mirror done, but i didn't like it, so made the new one- without the searchlight.
Here the parts mounted on the toothpicks ready for some paint.

| Siara...you really should do another set of fog lights like the one you did on the panel bus, but this time make them amber. |

Very well done, looks fantastic... no reason to consider my opinion, but I guess I'll still express it...
I think the car looks better without the luggage and sled on the rack. I love the skis on the ski rack but I think the stuff on the roof rack is taking away from the stunning detail of the car. |

| The only thing I don't like about this build is it is coming to an end and I won't be able to come back to watching the progress of such an awesome model! |
