| Unimog Cab
Anyone know who makes a really good unimog cab? I saw one here once that was hard plastic and very detailed. I looked at the bruder ones but i dont know if they will be wide enough and the tamiya lexan ones arent bad but i would rather it was abs or another hard plastic.

Bruder's U1300 Unimog is really tiny. 1:16 scale I think. MRC axles are even just slightly too wide. This company called Hafner in Germany makes a few cabs and I believe they're the only hardbodies available. http://truckmodellsport.de/shop/index.html (Click on Fahrerhäuser) They make different scale sizes so if you happen to decide to part with the big money, make sure you get the right size. |

I'd go with a Dickie Unimog if you can find one... Best detailed Unimog cab around IMO I had one and regret selling it..... |

the dickie mogs are great. i have had one sitting in the corner for 2 years waiting its turn. working winch, snow plow, and service lights... i got mine off of www.ebay.de ....and did a lot of copy and paste translation. find a place that uses paypal and be prepared to wait. took over a month to ship. you might get lucky and find someone in the states that will part with one....but it wont be cheap. |
