Looks good.
I started the M916 last year. Great kit, only thing I did not like was putting together the inricate and might I add delicate suspension, on top of that their are no placement slots so you have to eyeball and guess where it goes. Also I've noticed that the rivets on the cab seem to be a little bigger and more pronounced then the real thing.
