Lego McLaren MCL35M (2021 Italian GP first and second place) - Bags 2

 

Bags 2 almost ready to go

Here are the pieces for the second set of bags.  Like all the activities that follow, I have a beginning and end for each of the sets of bags, so I can work out how long each took.  Neither this nor bags 3 & 4 were completed at a single sitting, so I'm going to have to work out the timings carefully.

Part of the way through bags 2 and I can start to see the basic shape of the car.  Here, the front axle and the steering assembly are taking shape.  At the end of bag 2 there is a clear chassis and both axles are evident.

The engine has also been mounted.  There were a couple of dis-assemble / re-assemble of parts, particularly around the front axles, as I realised that the car did not look symmetrical. Other than that Bags 2 was a straight forward build and gave a good sense of progress.
