Just arrived from Marcle Models. This is a paper kit that makes up into three different versions of this classic Mercedes. I was going to make the ambulance, but I've chosen to build the Fire Dept panel van instead.
This should be a straightforward build (!) with no Contacta, Milliput or Vallejo involved. I will, however, be getting through a shedload of scalpel blades!
Enough - here are the 'sprue' shots.

These are not one-sided. The reverse looks like this:

The instructions, such as they are, are in German, but these models can be made by simply following the diagrams, which with Schreiber-Bogen are nearly always very clear and precise. The model can be made with or without interior detailing - I'll be going 'with'. This will be an OOE (out of the envelope) build - the only aftermarket extras might be the odd cocktail stick.
