That quad is cool.

Gary, will let you know when it arrives and see how it looks. No doubt I have print few extras for it. Not sure if I want an M35 fuel.truck or Gaz66 fuel.truck haha.

I only bought soo many as I have people locally asking me to build them cool.lookimg trucks, but they not want to spend so much.
Plus we have talked to some local museums and they want us to put on a few large scale military models. So.i want a few variants. No rat rods for that though haha

I saw a Q-60 with the tank on it and it looked very cool. I'm already planning to get another Q-60 to go with the one I'm working on now, so the first will have tents and stuff and the second will have the tank, and hopefully a water trailer. Wouldn't a field kitchen be cool? Thew tanker kit might also look cool on the Ural, eh?

More gubbins to have to model and print I guess, but at least I already have the trailer and CCKW

As my wife nears completion of here SWB M35 Crew Cab conversion, i have printed another couple of cabs off so we can get the LWB version sorted aswell

Need to think how we want to paint up the 2nd one, although that blue one before looks good fun

Good afternoon,
Snow and -8 degree below 0 temps ( F ) Sounds like perfect weather to take WPL's 5 Ton Crawler out for a spin in the weather that it was designed for. The cold killed it's tiny battery quickly but I did get a short run in. Video is up on my You Tube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VlBI545GKok
regards,

M35 Rat getting more paint!!!!


New URAL Air filter for the Soviet trucks


M35 Crew Cab LWB, the big brother to the SWB




And yes i know the next truck is not JJRC/WPL/HengLong, but the link is it was these trucks that got me started in Rat Rods and Hot Rods!!!
Bruder Mercedes Actros on a chop diet, i call it the Actro Rat





I will stick it in another build thread under RC Trucks and cars
But 6x4 with a brushless unit and 2 speed gearbox.
I have designed the whole chassis on this and the front still flips forward(a little) to access some electrics.
