Good Morning!!!
This car I rode it in 2011, then over the years let's improve our eyes and become a little more discerning.
Then I started this assembly.
Let's have some fun that this is the goal of plastimodelism.

Here as he was



I already started on the bottom











Almost, you still lack some trinkets inside and a little more wear and tear





For now it's just
A big brotherly hug to everyone and even more

It looks like you had a ton of fun, and turned a sow's ear into a silk purse.

Very nice work!! looks good! I have four of these in my stash I picked up cheap over the years (most recently for a whole $5); hope to make one into an ambulance version and pair with Dragon's German Medical Troops figure set.

Yeah; got it at the contest my local club has every year in eastern Iowa; if I use the 40% off weekly coupon I can get one at our local Hobby Lobby for $12; they always have 3 or 4 of them in their model kit section for $19.99; so far I've resisted the urge to tell their managers "Could you please sell these for about half that price considering these kits are about 40 years old?"
happy modeling

Yes
Here in Brazil, as I said, he does not lose $ 15
The people here are very mercenary.
Thanks buddy
A big fraternal hug

Good work! I love taking my old models and giving them an overhaul! It is so extremely satisfying to add details and correct previous mistakes...

On a different note: Could someone please change the tile of the thread to "Reforma do Sdkfz 251/1 C"? It is clearly not an Ausf. D type...
