Robin I put this off for years because it's resin but it is actually easier than some plastic kits I've tackled lately. It needs a slightly different skill set needed to styrene kits. I've replaced some resin rods replaced by stretched sprue and wire.

Good clean casting though the front axle had a large internal air bubble which caused it to snap when removing the casting plug. I pinned it together with some wire and superglue

I put a coat of primer on what I've done so far to give a clearer picture of the model

I didn't trust my sausage fingers to construct the delicate seat frame so I made one from wire
