PatW Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 After building a standard, the surf version, I thought military version (hoping I've put this in the right forum). Built box stock, camo painting all flat surfaces included the 'glass' side and rear window! 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marco F. Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 Great result PatW , looking good, especially the Mehari kit is not one of the better Heller kits Congratulations Marco F 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatW Posted October 12, 2022 Author Share Posted October 12, 2022 Thanks Marco F. Only the engine is fiddly, but the tyres have to be super-glued to the wheels because there aren't any backing plates or rims to stop them falling off, especially on the build!. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the info, I've got this kit in my stash and I wasn't sure what to expect. It's nice to see one built up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old John Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 Nice job Pat. Bet that paint job was a bugger to spray LOL. Masking tape would have cost more than kit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
