Duty Driver Needed

Hello all,
I have a few other projects on the burner but the way work has been going, they have been kinda cooling off for the last few weeks so I wanted something a bit easier. OK I wanted a quick build there I said it.
This was a fun build indeed. This is Tamiyas newer mold of the Kubelwagen Type 82.
I remember building the original Kubelwagen and MAN, Tamiya has come a long way baby[:p].
I decided to built this one straight out of the box except for adding a lil damage to the right quarter fender.
The over all detail on the Kubelwagen is very well done. The only area where I had a little fit trouble was where the body side halfs meet the front quater fenders. It may have been possibly that the halfs were a little warped or it could have been just me buts as you can tell I attached em like a champ[;)].
Other than that minor ordeal like I said earlier, it was a blast to build. Oh and yes I do have a few more of these beauts on my to do list[:)].

Flaps up, Mike

Nice Kubelbutz, Wagen!

Nicely done Mike !!! Very clean build and nicely weathered.

Nice to see some more of your work here in the Treadhead Forum.

Glad that I could share with you guys and it was not quite a weekend build. It was more like 2 1/2 weeks when all was said and done.

Quite refreshing to see some softskin every once in a while. You kubelwagen looks great. I like the subtle weathering.

Hope you keep yourself in the dark. He-he-he.
