Looking forward to this guys. I'm building an old Airfix kit. I had planned on the Matador with upgrades, but it turns out the company I had planned on getting the upgrades from only operates in snail mail (really, not even an email address!?).

So, it looks like it will be a Bedford of some description.

I think I'll go with the newly announced Bronco Buffalo with plastic slat for this campaign. Hope it hits the shelves soon!

Wondering if this might qualify? Not strictly a truck but it does have 3 axles

If not, I will probably use my DML Scud with MAZ carrier.





I have decided to allow vehicles with multiple axles/drives like the G4



after a few emails on the subject. Especially when we have JEEP kits with the word TRUCK on the box cover.

But, if in question ask first. This would include the new Tamiya Gama Goat too.

I'm still in with the Studebaker US6 but I might go with a tanker vehicle instead. I think I'm going to build the truck chassis up and see which idea speaks to me.

Hi Guys,

I want to enlist with my Unimog build, and I thought I had, but my name is not on the list.

I go to the enlistment page but I see no enlisting instructions or options ... What am I missing? How do I enlist?

Grubby.

Sorry Pete, hadn't seen this question before. I've not done the new one but did convert an older HEMTT to gun truck myself. The build can be seen here: http://forum.ipmsireland.com/topic/8545724/2/

Cheers

Starter pictures. It's ICM's 1/35 Studebaker US6 from the Katyusha kit. I used the rocket launcher for another project so I'll be using the leftover truck components. I'm still not sure what I'll be doing with it. I'm going to build up as much as I can and see where it takes me.





I went ahead and started the frame and chassis last night.

Here is my project for the extreme campaign. I was going to build a 5th wheel like M123 or M920, but instead went with this since it’s been sitting on my shelf for a while.

Thanks José

After a 3 days week end, some major update.

Progress goes to the chassis and wheels!.

Heavy temps this summer, help me with a lot of "spare" time at afternoons

I’ve made some progress on my Humber truck; chassis is complete with just some slight modifications to a couple of parts……poor fit. I’ve also started working on the cab, front quarter panels, and grill area. No real issues yet, almost a shake and bake kit.

Any Problems with the kit or idea on what paint scheme you will go with
