We have one chassis for our Saloons, it is exhibited on the wall above the two bodies. I do believe there is a difference between the 400 and 500 though, the bodies are certainly longer longer. I am told that we should have enough components to make up one saloon, it is a case of time and expertise! Jean

Aye, t'is champion is that!
Like all mechanical jigsaw puzzles one can obtain the putting together is time consuming. Moral of the story is hence forth do not dismantle unless you really are going to assemble I think. I spent much of the last 25 years re assembling other folks failed projects. I enjoyed it and profitted but there is the rub. Stuff in bits tends not to go up in value much over time unless the components get valuable. Better to leave it and pass on or finish the job. Then again such things are ideal for the hands on collector/museum as he/it can get a bargain and conserve. The pool of folk able to do this is shrinking. It is a prob with no easy answer.
