Thanks for clearing that up for all of us. 
I thought as much once I stope and thought about it. It would not matter if any one could see all the detail any way. You are right all your inprogress photos show all the detail. So now with my build going strong I'm going to fully glue my upper and lower hulls as well, but take your time now rush my friend. I have a lone way yet to go my self.
An a good luck to you "Good Buddy" 
Hello. Captin_Caveman.

Kim real nice work!. Good luck with painting it. I know you will not see all of the interior but the main thing is you know its there and you know all of the hard work that was put into this smashing Bradly.

I have painted my Bradley with interior basic color and some kinds of oil paint colors.
Of course, I have a lot of remain paint work.
But I have been busy nowadays because I have to manage our brand new construction site till this November.
You could see my painted Bradley if you visit my blog or cafe.
I'm posting the course of making it by stages.
Again many thanks!

Greetings Kim. I have just popped over onto your website to check out the painting.
I didn't realise you could remove parts of the interior for easy access very well though out.
Great start on the paint and weathering very realistic!.
Keep up the outstanding work

Hi Kim, I've been watching your thread for months now, it's really been an inspiration to see the level of detail you've put into this build. I spent 6 years as a Bradley crewman and you have really hit the mark with this one. I've bumped my head and bruised my shins on the real-life counterparts of many of the superb details you've included in your build!
Thanks for reproducing in such detail the track I spent a good portion of my military career in.

Kim I really am lost for words! Your model is just amazing, I dont lie when I say this is one of the best scale models ive EVER seen. Your unbelievable scratch building work, is matched by some of the most realistic painting ive seen.
This is a masterpiece in every sense. If you understand this you really should try and get this published somewhere, because it deserves to be seen by all modellers!

Kim,
As Rob Harvey stated, you should turn your blog into a book on Superdetailing and Scratchbuilding the M3A2 CFV.
And if you created resin parts from your work, I believe you would IMMEDIATELY put out-of-business whom ever made the resin engine bay you show in your blog!
A Work of ART!!
ESSAYONS!
