Range Rover Rally

[tmathew1us]

This is the beginning of the Range Rover that won the 1981 Paris-Dakar Rally. Kit Review here. http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/118121-italeri-range-rover-rally/#comment-1711587

 No engine, but some interior detail.

I have never tried weathering a kit, so this may be a candidate for my first try. 

 

The rear was solid, but I cut out the window and tailgate.

The mesh above is some I had lying around, the mesh below is from the kit, as well as the two included fire extinguishers. 

Auxiliary fuel tank and aftermarket tubing

Basic detail on the chassis

Added seatbelts. Rollcage is standard

Prelim fit of what it will look like

Looks pretty good so far...Looks like it will make a nice rally car.
