I tried so hard for so long to get a Merit kit and after building it I was disappointed by it’s small size. I was hoping to make it work but no chance unless used as a background model. In 1/16 scale there’s not much room for “background” models.

That's the plan, it's the same on the 251 as I would make them with as few a part possible so can keep them interchangeable.
The base for the vehicle mount would be different but otherwise should work.

The famo is end if year project, but we will get there. Need to learn from the 251 first

Same here Jim.
I have 2x 1/18, but they are too small. So with this I decided to correct that issue and then also go a little further to try make it rc :)

It all pales into insignificance compared to a 4x4 off road versatile 1 1/4 ton light utility truck :D ;)
