Not to my knowledge Bill - I think the inter-float rigging wires would be in the way for a start.
Great job so far!

Of course, slapping palm to forehead!
Evan, cant see any gas caps anywhere on the floats.

So have done some to the underside radiator ahroud. The plastic just looked toooo thick so I did my usual by just tapering the front edge. The plastic part for the vert separation piece was just too thick so I used card. I thinned the edges of the top of the cockpit as well.

The prop is a fright so I did a lot of shaping, ALL over. A line to add to spinner, and screw heads, little drill marks.

The throttle quadrant only had the back arm, could be mixture. So I added a piece of card and an arm for "throttle".

I sailor on, no tank! It's just that I found detail photos of the pick-up tube and it would be worth scratch building!!!
