Very nice work on the "real" doors. Something that's usually missing on the cars we build.
I used to have a lot of fun posing my (non RC) scale Buragos on the shelf like that...

Louisbaby, the local vintage shows are just starting up again for the summer & it's extremely likely the pig will be about - if you need any pics of anything in particular in/on/around one, lemme know & I'll see what I can provide

Thanks buddy, I would appreciate some pictures of the interior. That's something I don't have a lot of. Thanks a lot for your help.

fantastic
It looks like an old russian vehicle.
Very fun

Not as much fun as this I suspect....
A bloke down the road to me collects vintage military vehicles & bought in a pile of these cold war Russian Zil 6x6 water carriers. He asked me to fix the electronic ignition units on a couple of them, & as payment he let me take one around his 10 acre off-roady playground!
6 wheel drive, 7 litre V8 petrol engine, clunky manual gearbox with no syncros, combined with mud, water, trees & insane hills....awesome fun! One of the pics is the view from the cab, a VERY long way up! (Apologies for the pic quality, it was a very old camera phone)

Progress so far... Not much more done, but soon I'll spray primer.

Lucky bugger...

Indeed, the grin says it all!
Next mission is to get me a go in a Scammell Explorer, I've kinda resigned to the fact that I'm unlikely to ever own one cos there's nowhere around here to park one!
(I'm fairly sure I could get a Unimog in my parking space if I could find a cheap one though (Missus says no...))
