Default Wading Trunks on Italian Kangaroos

Bob (and others)
If you have produced the diorama yet, please may we see the pics ?! Shall I send in my e-mail address ?

I have nearly finished mine with a raised front structure over the old 105 position. I retained the inside floor level, fitted a 3 piece nose too and early suspension from a Grant model. Did you keep the floor level in ?

I have a good rear end pic of the extra rear sponson box fitted on the drivers side, incorporating a rear light.

I used a spare VLS wading trunk, but also unsure as to the accuracy of it. I think these and M10s only had the one rear trunk fitted. No rear fold down shield.

I had believed the triangle on the side was for the South Africans ?

Of course these were different from the NWE fit, which often had the extra side 'armour' from the deep wading mods.

The deep pulpit does not have to be removed from the Italeri model, but a 3 piece nose has to be fitted as they were ex-M3 chassis.

Any further info on interiors is welcome.

Regards
Andrew
