 Ammo chute completed on this side.At this point it could be sheathed in brass or painted.

The oil tank is fitted with its piping and permanently glued in .The front gun fitting (green) is temporarily fitted as is the ammo box and chute.
Next will be the instrument panel and the rear gun fitting.From the oil tank aft everything will remain removable until I connect up the instrument panel piping and wires.

As you can see it is a very tight fit in this area so any modification that you do will have to take this into account.Don't be tempted to glue things in permanently until you are absolutely sure about the arrangement.Like I thought the ammo box/chute would have been easier to make and probably looked better if it was scratch built but figuring out how to modify stuff is fun too...

Temporary fitting of the instrument panel.It still needs cleaning up of the instrument faces and a little subtle weathering.
