Thank you Carl! Lol! Thank you Andrew! Thank you Noel! Plus this was a private team. Thanks Bob!

Thank you Doyle!

Nice job! I was hoping Italeri update the Protar kit, with some more detail. But it seems they kept every think like it was.

Chassis converted to a 88in wheel base. Cut it in 6 spot, and shortened little bit. Also assembled the front and rear axle. Next primer and paint.

I found few books about him, mostly about steam machines. I was thinking to get one, because I would like a somoe point to build a steam machine. Agree, very inspiring person.

Maybe somebody make the TD5, I never look int too much. I mean I'n mot building a Defender... Maybe one day, I offroad raced Defender and Discovery years ago. This kit I'm building, the "commercial 109" has a turbo diesel engine. That should work for a 80's Defender. Not sure if the Series III had a turbo diesel though, for what I remember the 2.25 was non turbo. The did the 2.5 TD... I need to look into that, when I'm a that point. I start to watch some documentary of Fred little over a year ago, by accident. Climbing a chimney witout any safety of some sort. Maybe smoking a cigarette. I got hook up, and start to watch all I can find about him. Very interesting person, with his simplicity he conquer everybody. Every time I spoke about Fred with somebody from UK, they put a big smile. His passion for steam povered machine made who he was. A man of another era that can capture with his personality. Thank you Noel!

The Revell Land Rover 109 "commercial" has already the hood for the spare tire. The trans kit are cool, but would be nice if they offer or make contemporary engine for it. Like a TD5. I used one of C1 Models transkit (needed the back of the cab and roof) for make Fred Dibnah Land Rover. Pretty cool 3D parts, and the corner clear are very nice! Altough I had to cut and shortened the back of the cab, it was too wide.

Pretty cool, but for mine I don't need a transkit. Thanks!

I doubt they sell you only a the parts tree.

The first cut, you'll never forget.

I saw few, pretty cool! Thank you Michael!

It is listed under 1963 Ford, and they ship to Canada. https://scalefinishes.com/1963Ford.html

I ran into the same problem years ago when I painted the Cobra Transporter. I check the spray can for a matching color. Even play with different primers. A the end I went with Scalefinishes, they have the perfect match for a Viking Blue.

It is the commercial version, two door and the back is like a truck.

I will take a look, thank you David!
