Cheers fellas  ....... think iv`e just increased my workload tenfold  Here`s the story behind it Bill very kindly offered me the 99% built trailer and spade which i gladly and appreciatively accepted..........so thanks again Bill It was a tad unexpected and has moved the goalposts somewhat.......however.....Bill found a couple of pics of a FAMO in Libya towing the trailer, this means i can stick with my North African theme knowing they were used in theatre. The other-side of the coin has increased build time, i`m not a particularly fast builder so i will concentrate mostly on the tractor unit as that was the origional Carl build to start with........i will do the trailer as well but if i don`t get it done at least the tractor will be ........i `m thinkin` of a load and some figs to add and thats what makes me think time will be an issue.........anyway i`ll stick a pic up of the possible load once i do a bit of diggin` |
