The Cat diesel with its starter engine is a model in itself! Oh, I would enjoy one of those. I have long lusted after the 1/16 Maybachs, but there is no limit to my 1/16 greed.

Taking a break from the CAT while I figure out how much of the sump and flywheel housing I need to loose in order to fit within the donor chassis... :crazy:

Nearly done with the SdKfz 247:

And I thought I had seen all the WWII German armored cars. How did I miss this one? Or did I mistake it for a similar one. For anyone as surprised as me: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sd.Kfz._247

I think Mick was hoping for one that moves :haha:
Otherwise I have an old papercraft (allegedly) 1/16 model here that somebody can cut out and assemble to their heart's content 8O

I have build a few paper model buildings for my O-Gauge railroad. They can be amazing, but all the snipping, bending, folding, and gluing leads one to fold, staple, and mutilate--not just the model. :crazy:
