Land Rover Minerva Technical

[Sticky]

This is a limited run resin kit of the license built Minerva Land Rover converted to a technical using the AFV Club 106mm recoiless rifle. I plan to change the tires as these look just like the ones in the tamiya kubelwagen kit!

Awesome work John, I've always loved all those technicals and this is no exception, it actually kinda reminds me of the technical the somalians used to blast the US soldiers in the end of the film, "Black Hawk Down" (Great film btw :thumb:)

Now this comes unexpected...
Nice on John!
I haven´t seen one of those before, but it appears as the handle on the outside of the door is missing and the rail on the right end (sorry, I don´t know how to describe it better with my poor english) is crooked.
Let your magic work mate! :thumb:
Oh, and I agree, the tires look exactly like the ones on Tamiya´s Kübel.
What are your plans for it?

Not sure what you mean Marcus, but there are no handles on the outside of the doors in my ref pics!

Sorry John, I really need to improve my english it seems...
I meant this part:

Are you working off a particular reference?
