I hope it turns out all right John I have 2 more to build yet for a diorama I'm planning.

Great choice Colin. This is on my wish list to do one day. Will you be adding lots of cargo to it or leaving it bare in the back?

[Jon Heptonstall]

Good looking truck.
What is the group build?

Hi all since Ian got cracking with his build I thought I'd better make a start on mine.
First impressions looks like a standard tamiya kit theres no flash and most of the ejector marks are hidden the engine is quite well detailed and cries out for some super detailing unfortunately tamiya have not given the option of having the bonnet open.

[Steve Jones]

A nice start. Any issues with keeping the chassis square?

[col68]

Hi Steve, no problems at all Steve the chassis is one complete moulding and the running gear just needs the diff covers adding then gluing to the chassis.

Will watch this. Can’t go wrong with Tamiya:thumb2:
