I've had this in my stash for a while and now is the perfect opportunity to do something with it. ;)
I'm looking forward to getting started on this one.

Cheers,
Vincent

This one will be strictly OOB, no damage, no rust...........nah, just joking. :lol: :lol: It will be the subject of some damage, the extent of which I'm not sure of yet. I have some things in mind for it that I've wanted to do for a while. ;)

Burning is a distinct possibility Steve. :D Figures I'm not so sure of at this stage.

I was hoping you would do the Zvezda. But this will be a much nicer truck.

Don't burn it. Trucks and Jeeps and tractors are the steadfast and noble workhorses of any army. They deserve our love, not our lighters. :geek:

Sorry John. :oops: As you know I was going to do the Zvezda but for the sake of variety in the GB I figured I should do something else.
I have quite a few trucks in my stash so I do appreciate the contribution they made. Of course, the fact they look cool helps too. :)
Let's see what develops as I work through the build. ;)

Cheers,
Vincent

I forgot to say that I'll also be putting on one of the High Side trays from MR Modellbau for a different look. :D

The parts look quite nice and I have my fingers crossed that they will fit together with a minimum of fuss. :roll:

Any reference pics of this tray configuration would be very much appreciated. :)
