After much cutting, fileing, sanding, filling, pop riveting, drilling and a trip to the eye doctor ( table saw shot a tiny piece of aluminum into my eye even with safety glasses on) I have a rolling chassis.
Going to fill in and shape the sides with balsa and mount a TD .15 and the vertical stab in the tail somehow. The fuel tank I haven't figured out yet, it needs to be small, mounted in front of the engine
and part of vert. stab.

Safety First! Even with safety goggles you got stuff in your eye, aluminum too. Man, I use to use pencil magnets to remove "Muffler Dust" from my eyes after working on cars exhaust system, that would not work with aluminum...Owch!
Just got my tires back from the Balancer....says they're good up to 15 MPH: We'll see. Co2 or Estes Jet pack in the design stage:
