Hi all,
I have always interested in the Trumpeter 1/16 M-ATV MRAP but didn't have a suitable RC platform to kit bash it until the very flexible, Lego like HL Truck came along. So here is some before and after pics so far. I have managed to get everything to fit together, and just waiting for some electronics to show up to have it running.

Thanks guys. It was much easier than I expected, just some adjustment and fitting here and there.

Cleverly improvised, Michael, and likely to result in a superb model.

Somehow, it looks bigger that 1/16...don't know why. Trumpeter certainly produce some highly desirable kits.

Thanks guys..... It is coming along, just waiting for a ESC, but plug in a Clark board today and almost smoke the HL 130 drive motor........ At least the 4x4 brass fitted drive linkage is working !
It does look bigger than 1/16, but then I found this on the web.......
