Pete in Lincs Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 I recently found a 'gluebomb' on the bay. It was a good price and I was curious. Battery powered, adhesive smeared and with an anti aircraft gun on the roof, what's not to like? It's an old Gunze Sangyo product and is somewhat of a Land Cruiser 'egg' model in 1/24th. But I wanted it to be 1/20th. Once disassembled, I cut off the roof. The dashboard and wheel from a 1/20th kit was added and the rear inner arches faired in. Underneath there were huge differentials to cover the gears so I made up some tubes and odd bits as a rough drivetrain. And this was the end result. Helmut seems pleased. It wasn't worth doing a WIP as it took no time at all. It's a bit mad with the huge wheels but it does the job. No pedals/gearshift and you can see through to the front, but I was only after a quick build anyway. Rough and simple but it'll probably never be seen again anyway. Though that depends on Helmuts driving. Thanks for looking. Comments are always welcome. Pete 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 Location corrected That's a fun project, and that dude looks suspeciously like an old boss of mine 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
