Paul821 Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 I am rather late joining this particular GB having been detained in the Anything But Injection GB. Although I am holding off building some of my airfield support vehicles should my proposed GB get enough support and get through the bun-fight, this box should provide one of more suitable vehicles for this GB. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul821 Posted July 16, 2021 Author Share Posted July 16, 2021 The box contained a number of kits. there was an opened Airfix Raf Emergency Set with a few bits missing but also an unopened one. Although often seen here is the sprue shot The plan is to build both this complete one but scratch build the missing parts for the other one as I do them as a parallel build. I am modelling a USAAF base but elsewhere on BM it was pointed out that the USAAF used british vehicles and a quick internet search came up with this link. https://hmvf.co.uk/topic/17541-ww2-raf-ambulance-markings/page/2/ which contains a photo's of a B-17 with vehicles that look like they might have come straight from the Airfix set. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul821 Posted July 18, 2021 Author Share Posted July 18, 2021 Stage 1 of the instructions followed however three of the springs were missing from the opened kit and replacements cut from plasticard. AS they will be hidden on the final model I was not too worried about the fine detail. Stage two also complete (with a bit of stage 3 on one) I tend to leave the wheels off vehicles until the underside of the model has been painted. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
