T-stoff V2 fuel truck

[fledermaus]

T-stoff fuel truck conversion by Leadwarrior, this kit is to be used with an opel blitz truck to make the V2 tank truck. I have a couple of Italery opel blitz truck in my stach so thats the one I used.
the Leadwarrior kit is a nice and very detailed set to make the fuel truck. Here it is.

Leadwarrior kit parts

I started to assemble the Italery chassis

next the tank assembly

next I replicated the hitch from the opel radio truck to use on the tanker version

the finished tank section is glued to the chassis, the replacement hitch is glued in pleace, comparison with original

I also replicated the spare tire holder from the italery radio truck

it looks like this

next the dash is drilled to receive decal gauges detail.

the manual fuel pump is assembled

the pump is assembled

the hand pump on its place

I replaced the Italery tires and wheels with 3d printed resin ones, the detais are excellent, even the bolts are separate

the ladder on the side of the tank is replaced with a scratch build one made in brass

the finished ladder is glued to the tank

the kit is ready for paint, thats comming next. thanks!
