Nicely done

Cool project.
Where does one buy a 1/6 Jeep body from?

Dragon make the 1/6 jeep but out of stock. I have one in the loft

Search eBay, AliExpress etc, they turn up for £100 now and again

That is cool.
Only problem would be I would need to upscale all the other models and would need same scale Sherman haha

They do a Sherman for about £400...

I'm doing both, and it's pretty cool. 1/6 offers a lot of options not available to 1/16, like .50 caliber paintball!

Of course, I have way too many projects and not enough time and energy, but I already have the Dragon Kubel kit as well as a 250 halftrack that are just waiting to be RCed. With all the extra space they can be a lot easier to do than 1/16.

Now I'm waiting for Wayne to do a kubel to see if the axles work in that, too.

No pressure there then...
Oh, I’ve just got my hands on a late holtsgas (sp) wooden cabin Opel Blitz, it’s going to take a fair bit of work but I’ll print it at 1/16 over the next few weeks, once I’m happy with it I’d be glad to share the stl’s
Bet it would look awesome at 1/6 lol

That's definitely different. I think the measurements i gave you last night may not apply because I notice the wood cab has foot rungs hanging straight down where my blitz has a step that sticks out below the door. If I measure across the steps at the back I get 120mm, a lot closer to what you thought.
