The weathering effect was made applying a coat of silver Gunze H8 and when it was fully dry, with a small pieces of sponge, making several irregular spot with Humbrol Maskol. Then it was painted overall with Gunze H59, and once dry simply rubbing off the Maskol. Minor scratchs were made with a silver pencil and a cutting blade.

I add only Eduard seat belts and brake lines.

My best.
