Default Land Rover Series 1

Here is my latest project ....its a scratch built 1955 Land Rover Series 1 body to fit on an scx10 frame. I already posted this build somewhere else and i'm already in an advanced stage but thought of sharing it in here as well. So here are the photos.

and here is some light info :-)

seats are made from balsa wood...light and easy to shape

bonnet is from aluminium sheet and opens with hinges

headlamp surrounds are in fact aluminium Heineken bottle necks

rear springs replaced with 55mm shocks so I could remove the shock towers.

that's all for now... hope you like
