Thanks David and Scott.

Here are a couple of pics of a few added details and from another angle:

Thanks for looking in fellows. Much appreciated. And you Ken for your responses on both boards.

Thank you for looking.

Thanks guys. Glad you all approve so far.

Been working on this for the last 3 days now and this is what I put together. Hope you all approve. If you look closely you'll see some bird eggs inside the right side headlight. The wheel lugs or bolts are on the ground next to the tireless axle.

Thank you Jason.

Thanks Tim. glad you enjoyed the pics.

Thanks Virgil

OK Johnny. Thanks for the confirmation.

Hi Jason. Thank you for your answer but I am still a little confused here. You said Franklin Mint got it wrong. Who is this? Do you have a pic showing the wheel and lug configuration , like what Andy posted above? A pic would say a thousand words. I'm trying to replicate this particular area as I will have one of the wheels remove on my build. I'm in the process of finishing off the chassi and I want to complete this area before painting.

This is the LAV III that was previously posted at the beginning of this thread. It is now decommissioned as you can see for obvious reasons:

Thanks Fabrizio. Glad you approve.

Thanks for this pic but is this the right configuration for the VW in question? Johnny posted a pic of a lug in an earlier post. It is different thanwhat you just posted.

Ok. Thank u kindly.

Thank you kindly. That is exactly what I needed to know. btw, looking at the rim, it looks to have 4 mount holes but it seems to have 5 holes.

Thanks. So can i assume that you mount the wheel using nuts to thread the rim to the threaded bolts that are already welded to the wheel? Or are bolts used?

I am curious to know if anybody have any pics of the wheel mount of this vehicle? Like to see how it looks, like how many mount wheel bolts does it have etc.

Thanks guys. Appreciate you took the time to view this thread.

thanks Jim but these are no more.

This build I did last year but unfortunately it has been decommissioned as I was not totally satisfied with the results. But regardless here itis withtwo different tractors:

Thanks Mark.

Thanks gents. glad you like the dio and appreciate the positive comments.

Thanks John. Much appreciated.

Thanks guys. Austin, . I search through my Misc. box and came across some very thin cable strands I had saved to use for plumbing. The rubber tire was cut using my dremel. Then I placed the strand of cable strands into that area. It is really a 123 history. It took me 3 mins.
