With the lunar loco completed I thought I'd go ahead and install the chassis in the RDC-M.
After some considerable thought the solution I settled on seemed quite simple: I glued pieces of 0.060" thick styrene into the ends of the shell, drilled a pilot hole into each piece, and used a self-tapping screw to tap the holes for securing the chassis with screws.
Screwing the chassis into position was easy.
There's still a considerable amount of painting and detailing ahead, but the biggest structural and mechanical jobs are finished.
