Fettling the cab!

Sounds odd to be fettling but before I go any further with the decals on the Italeri Scania 143H I need to start putting the cab together. The fit of the parts overall is reasonable but to get a model that looks reasonable there is sometimes a need to trial fit parts and adjust and alter as necessary. In other words time for some fettling. Sounds relatively easy but if you are dealing with painted parts it can get a bit tricky. I already managed to get some finger marks in the paint due to some glue on my fingers but luckily having the sense ( most unusual for me as Mrs. W would confirm) to let the glue dry, I was able to use some model polish to remove them. In visual form not a lot of progress but sometimes the time taken to do the fettling pays dividends later.
