UPDATES:
Last remaining sets of pictures showing you the winch mounted and how it would look like. I have removed the seat's back rest to show you this. The model is about 90% complete. Roll cage was removed for ease of work. Once completed I can begin casting..... Stay tune for more updates.
Thanks for viewing gents!

Managed to finish the wheel's center hubs. All bolts and nuts accounted for. The rear hub is different from the middle and front wheels. This is different because the vehicle can steer the middle and front wheels. Cocktail stick for size comparison.
Here is how it looks with the rims....

Hello Brian, There are several marks of ATMP. I Think ALVIS produce the mark III which is what I'm doing. Very few info on this and if you look closely rims vary too. I'm doing the 15 inch rims. There are other thread pattern also. If you look closely the sides of the one im doing is a bit thicker and had an opening panels both rear and front in which the signal lights are attached. You can also see a slight difference on the gauge panel. The engine is by VW ADE 1.9 turbocharged diesel. I think the older mark has a different engine but I'm not sure about this.
how much will it cost?

Outsatanding scratch work. Awesome ride too. You did a Homerun effort with your details and scrtch build. The difficult part is going to be molding and casting. Good Luck!! Cheers
