AndrewCJ50 Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 Good Evening Comrades Not exactly armoured but still brutal in its way, the Zil-131 Soviet truck from Trumpeter. Very nice kit but with resin Miniart wheels and scratch improved engine. I believe its petrol V-8 returned about 5 mpg if you were thinking of buying one! This 1960s truck is still in use around the world And in its early days Hope you like it? Andrew 31 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bullbasket Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 That's a superb model. Just enough weathering, and the engine compartment looks suitably grimy. John. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maginot Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 That Zil is absolutely schmick. Terrific detailing, good paint, convincing weathering and nice dirty windscreen with clear wiper arcs. Bound to get a 10 from the most antisocial judge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew J Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 Thank you Guys I forgot to mention that Trumpeter forgot the oil cooler pipe that snakes in front of the radiator and is visible through the front grill. However, easy to replace with lead wire. Youtube has a series of films by CustomTruck by an old army Russian truck restoring Guy. they are good for the inspiration Крупнейшая и последняя в 2021г. РАСПРОДАЖА техники с хранения, огромный выбор!!! - YouTube regards Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
