Wow, that was fast. Very nicely done, Gary!
Are the driver/co driver hatches moulded closed, or separate parts? Same question for the hatch on housing on the roof as well.
Beautiful model!

From the two builds of this one I've seen so far, this looks like a fine model.
Nice work.

Thank you gentlemen.
Sven - hatch, doors and visors (2 parts) are all separate parts.

Beautiful job, but where's the YouTube of it driving over your workbench?
