Asiatam Kubelwagen

Post by c.rainford73 »

I had some time to rework this little beast. Not much free time lately being an essential worker and dealing with a multitude of water emergencies due to many municipalities and hospitals overworked.

I also have a few more projects in the hopper as things begin to settle down.

It's a metal asiatam kubelwagen that I grabbed from MichaelC on the forum. I've added a Das Mikro sound card and dual speakers neatly tucked way under the driver and passenger seats

It has petrol sounds added and hidden under the rear seat and stowage is a 800mah 25c lipo battery.

The license plates are simply plasticard and hand painted ( I did my best freehand )

I've also reinforced the front lower control arms that are made of very soft metal with some epoxy and copper sheet for durability.

It was very tough to stick all these parts into such small confines but it was worth it I think Image

Thanks for looking!
