My Schwimmwagen Torro

[FredtheFrench]

This is my Schwimmwagen Torro being detailed. The dashboard is completely wrong compared to all pictures of Schwimmwagen.

There is also pictures of the electronic. Sit down and take pop corn...

Absolutely super nice model! I always wanted a company to reproduce a drivable replica using a fiberglass tub and modern mechanical fittings, but, oh well.
I hope to see yours in a video some day. Beautiful job.

Looks nice! I question why they used that thin thread for the prop lift; something heavier would offer better scale appearance.

If that interested somebody, this is pictures of rear and front axle. The system is pretty good, but I doubt the plastics gimbals will have a long life in offroad.

The last pictures are to show how remove a wheel. It is very simple

Very interesting, and informative, Fred! Excellent photos too...

Those are some great pictures and it looks very nice. I'd say it's built to a high quality level- aside from the drive shaft dogbones that do appear a bit limited I'd imagine. Run it easy. Certainly someone will come out with replacements and upgrades

This looks familiar

It is a kubelwagen. Look at the doors.

Thank you all.

C.rainford73, like you, I hope someone will upgrades these parts. My 9 years old son has broken down the Schwimm, but repair was easy, because the gimbal was not to his place and not broken.
