Time for update, i did some changes on the front, i cut away some of the bars and i moved the weight spec. plate, as many jeeps had them mounted over the headlamp on the passenger side.

And after some surgery i'm pretty happy about the fit of the driver

I am ready for primer now, so that's what's gonna happen today, also ordered a Heller jeep with trailer, so i can use that trailer together with this jeep :geek

Ok here is some update pics

Primer on, used tamiya spraycan.

and then XF51 with Ab

got some nasty spots there but i think i will get them away in weathering..... :hmmm

The parts for the trailer

And the chassi is ready just the wheels (from the italeri jeep)that needs some fixing.

And here is the fix for attaching the italeri wheels to the Heller trailer.

The trailer will be filled with stuff and covered by a canvas so no need for it to look perfect B)

Taking shape nicely. The spots look like pre weathering weathering. Will come out well I'm sure.

Thanks for the nice comments
Not much done today, i cut off the ring on the trailer, i think it was a bit oversized :hmmm
Gonna make a new one in metal (like i did on the 6 pdr in the torch campaign)
Here is how it looks now.

drilled a hole for the wire.
