WC54 Ambulance Navy issue

Post by Shaun Symonds »

Hi
Finally decided what I'm building. :oops:
Going for a US Navy WC54 Ambulance. :)
Using the Italeri kit probably out of the box unless I decide to build the interior for the rear :roll:

Love it!

I think you should have a go at the interior. From the photos I've seen it was pretty simple and shouldn't need too much effort.

This is one of those kits that AFV Club REALLY needs to do! I have loved these vehicles all my life. Can't wait to see how yours turns out!

Oh nice choice Shaun! :D
It's just enough out the ordinary while being perfectly ordinary to intrigue me :lol:

Is this one of the early great Italeri kits or one of the dupes?

Hi Everyone
Glad to have You all interested :D , Yeap not too off the beaten track but just enough for Me with the Navy colours ;)
Hope to start the build tomorrow, shed time booked ( life to busy at the moment with 1 thing & another :( ).
Mark Nice build any other photos of the interior would be interesting ( seems I'm going to be building mine with it :roll: ).
Raoul It's a very early Italeri kit probably a Peerless reissue :shock:

Hi
Little bit of work started yesterday ;) ( still trying to finish a couple of other builds :oops: ).
The Basic chassis is done , No fit problems, Very little flash to remove. So No drama's :)

As for an interior hadn't realised ( until started to built it :o ) it has a basic rear section so will be improving on the detail for there instead of having to scratch build ;)
