Thanks KMS, the headlight surrounds turned out nice, it's cool that you were able to turn them down yourself

Probably wont trail it. I have the Navy Willy's for my main rig .This one is going to be for sale . After my shoulder surgery last fall I still have a few medical bills that we are struggling to pay .

They look really good together. The body work you did on the orange one is immaculate. What did you use to fill in the shovel and axe slots? Automotive Bondo? It looks perfect.

Next time I thinking about plastic welding to fill the slots, then using less bondo would be better .

It's amazing how much more realistic this looks, by adding the 3A windshield. The MB looks kinda "toy-ish" compared to the scale appearance of the 3A, and that orange just seems to fit it perfectly.
