I thought it looked familiar, but just could not place it! Nice job on both by the way.

Great job Paul. I too am a fan of larger headlights on these little "buckets". I'm guessing the dude in the back seat is a double amputee from the knees down, given the space constraints in this critter. Very pleasing result. Rick H.

RickH, the ROCO bumps just don't suffice. Steve, the guy in the back & the driver lost toes to frostbite on the Ostfront & the MP40 guy lost his right leg below the knee to a landmine. Thus they fit like a glove. Ketten is next. PaulE

Worked the 250/5 FAO a bit. Adding crew, interior items, exhaust, tools, PE shield & ranging binos, and am working 105 in travel mode additions.

Up to your usual standards Paul, really like the addition of the floats and mats. Adds much interest. How about just tying them down? Looking the Bomb! Rick H.

Damn my friend. You just stop, do you. Top stuff and I really love the Harry Potter floating Kubel. Ok, I know it's the the plexi underneath, but it looks too cool. A quick question if I may Paul. Why did you put fenders under the Funker cabin over the tracks? Most of the time they were made into storage lockers with padlocks on the doors when mounted on the Maultier.

Or maybe I'm missing something..........

Prost

Thanks Rick & Steve. Remember the dark chocolates? Dove Dark foil wrappers. I used fine winding wire instead of thread. Am trying thread with the floats & mats but it's challenging as the thread wants to stay straight, and I've never practiced suturing. PaulE
