Italeri 1:24 Land Rover Fire Truck

[Kallisti]

I was given this kit as a birthday present from my work colleagues back in February as this year was a significant milestone (or mill-stone?) birthday. I finally got round to building it in the last few weeks after the marathon of the Babylon 5 Starfury for the Anything but Injection GB. I can't honestly say its a great kit, there were major fit issues, particularly with the roof (which has the driver and passenger door windows moulded into it!!) However, these problems were eventually overcome and it turned out be a nice little model that looks good on the shelf with my other fire engines. I can't in all honesty say its one of my better builds, but it will do

I remember the 'fit issues' from when I built the Italeri '109" 4x4', which is the same Land Rover as this model. I think you have done an excellent job with getting the roof, doors and windscreen to align so well. You have built a great looking truck.
