A great, well designed and engineered kit. Recommended for the first-timer, a wet weekend, restoring ones modelling mojo or for simple glue on styrene fun.

Built out of the box apart from some PE chain for the tow-bar (left over 1/350 anchor chain), a bit of lead wire for the headlamp and hand painted numbers.




















Thanks for looking

Lovin the small wheeled jeeps, over time while I get older I take more of a fancy to more than just big tanks or big everything, its like Tractors, when I was younger it always had to be the big 4 wheel drive tractors but now I like the smaller 2 wheel drives, this is similar to the wheeled vehicles!

I can picture a small crew with the driver sitting in the door of his armoured car while the gunner/ co driver is sitting on some crates eating a apple or writing a dairy on a lunch break, the car would be positioned behind a wall with the gate only slightly opened but propped shut with boxes and old barrels! Anyway... better not bore you! I love the jeep, cracking little pocket rocket, looking forward to more!

These things are small even in 1/35, nevermind 1/48. Very impressive!
