Rat Patrol! You going to have it going airborne over a sand dune taking out a Panzer with a .50?

This is going to be good

Thanks guys! This is a hard one to find and at a price that doesn't send you into shock. I did a lot of looking and got lucky.

Re: LRDG TRUCK"THE REAL RAT PATROL""UPDATE 1 "

While at Squadron last weekend I purchased the PE set for the 30 CWT truck so now this project can begin.

So work begins with the frame, drive train, and wheels. No PE yet that's next. Here's some pictures of the progress so far. Thanks for looking and questions and comments are welcome.

Been working on the truck today. Did work to the cab adding wiring and little details like the bead seal around the headlights. I added the gas and break pedals(PE) and instrument cluster(PE). Here are some pictures to keep things going until I get back from my camping trip.

I love reminiscing at the old kits, thanks Terry!

I actually gave one away to a good friend. Hopefully, this Karma will get us all a new kit.
