1920=1930 lorry

Hi folks, not been around for a bit,

I am looking for plans for any 'interesting' lorry to build as a change from boats, anything considered but would like something about 1920's or later, something with a bit of 'character ' that I can build to be radio controlled.

As it's my first venture into "auto's" I haven't a clue where to start.

J.

Hi Jankers, I haven't come across anything like this before. Ineresting idea though and far mor to it than the modern lorry kits you see around.

I bet scratchbuilding is the best bet but it will be quite a task.

Thanks gys,

That e-bay lorry looks interesting but i was rather more inclined to scratch build and try my hand at metal soldering, i would prefer not to use a plastic kit as i enjoy? the need to figure out the plans.

Any more?
