Vietnam Gun Truck

Heng Long/WPL are now manufacturing 1/16 scale RC trucks, so it seemed sensible to create a forum area dedicated to the amazing things that members are doing with them. Post your builds, mods, and tips here.

Nice, I'll be following in your footsteps. Full sides with rifle ports, 106 mm recoilless over the cab, twin 30s and 50s over the sides and hopefully a mini gun over the rear if I can find one in 1/16 scale. All are subject to change of course. What are your door and side plates made of please?
