Nice car, James! I know what you're talking about with the 7/1 hood

Waiting for updates

Thanks for taking the time to lookin and comment Fellas!
I was going to try and next take a look at the machine guns that come with the kit but after coming home after a 10 hour day and then making a great curry for supper I ran out of gas- man am I feeling my age these days!
So for now all I can post is this pic here- of the Early so called MG 13 seen in this pic


I will be taking a look into my larder of goodies to see if I can add some detail to the barrel with an Adler's NEst ( how appropriate) metal barrel, so till then aduei, off to work now-

It looks like a great kit fit-wise. Love to see more of Bronco's kits being built up. Doesn't the MG 13 look a bit flimsy?

Yes, the real MG I'm talking about. It looks to me like it not not be a relaible piece compared to the later MG 34/42's.
One thing that is nice about this kit is that one rarely sees a MG13 in model form!

It reminds me (looks-wise) of the M85 .50cal that I used many of time in the M60A3 tanks-truly one bad MG. I'm just basing this all on looks.
I'll be interested in what you can do with the kit piece.

James, Does the vehicle have a radio? Here is a website that covers German WWII radios.

It's funny that a scout car would not have a radio.
