Hasegawa 1/32 P-40E. Update 6-3

I should clarify. I know some of the pictures are restored aircraft. I am just seeing a wide variety of configurations.

When you got the money to spend on restoring an P40 you can customize your IP all you want.

I am not making much sense.

No you are, no two IPs are the same so pick one and run with it.

IP sorted. Now, one series of pictures show a breaker panel on the starboard side of the cockpit. Not sure about that. I have seen photos with the breaker panel, radio and electrical equipment, and almost bare.

Hasegawa 1/32 P-40E. After some thought it was time to cut it up.

Hasegawa 1/32 P-40E. Time to update. The frames are in. Need to think on the fuel tank.

More soon.

@fightnjoe this is the fuel tank on the P-40E:

I hope this helps and not hinders.

Saul right. Trying to figure out how to make it look right without compromising the bulkheads. Thinking separate pieces for either side, glued to the bulkhead. The shape isnt right either.
