due to a problem with the internet, I continue my topic: The mounting chassis, engine, gearbox, axle and shocks do not pose any particular problem even though some find that the kit is more or less just







that's all for now

Roy If in the past mercenaries and soldiers of fortune had only one goal ... they have not been recognized by governments today they have formalized all under the "contractors" label
I continue the installation in the rear compartments with storage lockers

this is what happens with accessories

Separation reinforces the floor on which the mistress of the vehicle will play

Those sorts of builds can be great fun! I'll be following with interest. Good idea on the storage bins....

If you needs the X-pattern doors let me know: I've a few in the spares box

I modified the original seat to modernize, mount pneumatic booster

seat belts from an airplane and the seat support is an anti tank mine

That is what it gives up

Hi
you guessed it, the platform is a small piece AA or anti car. For sun protection (among others), but also views of the enemy, it is necessary to install a roll bar for the camouflage net.
We must realize supports the arch

Love the concept and the detail you're adding but I'm not too sure about the WWII flak gun....it's too old to go on this build. What about a ZSU or something more modern?

you are absolutely right but in my stock I had nothing else. This is what has to change my scenario ..... flak emerged in very good condition and a hidden deposit entrenu by partisan, etc ... or it was stolen from a military museum, etc ...

We must not forget that during the war of Yugoslavia fixtures with assorted weapons of WWII were used and ontfonctionnées.
