GeeBee Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 Finally got it finished this afternoon, airbrushed in Land Rover Pastel Green, I'll get some better photos taken in the next few days, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Bacon Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 Certainly looks like a Landy to me, and the colour is just right (full disclosure: my first 6 years involved riding around in a pastel green SWB... the family car) Good job, Geoff! best, M.

Goose1957 Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 Very nice. I bought one of these kits and need to start it soon. I like your color choice. Great detail, too. Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doorsovdoon Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 Very nice, I love the old Landys. My dads uncle ran a farm and he had many different variations of these. Good memories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spottedlaurel Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 It looks fantastic, as befits the care and attention that obviously went into it that we saw on your WIP thread. Just a small detail, but the rear lights capture the look of the Lucas originals really well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any issues I need to be aware of? Thanks for sharing this stunning model. Thank you for your kind words, depending on if you get the Revell Germany or the U.S version, which I haven't seen the instructions, the Revell Germany instructions got a few things wrong, just use the Internet for reference and you won't go too far wrong, the part listed for left hand drive transmission tunnel, throw it away, Land Rover never actually made a left hand drive gearbox layout, they were a little tricky to drive as the 4x4 and high/low range selector levers were a little out of reach, they also got the parking brake lever mixed up on the instructions, again using the Internet for reference will show you which side it should be fitted. But as for building the Land Rover, it's a superb kit to put together. Edited August 25, 2020 by GeeBee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not chrome trim,but galvanised steel, it's quite bright on new Land Rovers but dulls down over time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
