The Landie moves on

The trailer isn't required for the Landie, but it'll do as a spare

Just the wheels to add after painting

The trailer parts are included so I located a number-plate decal and made it up

Nice set you have there, Ratch. You built and painted the Land Rover Series 3 LWB Hard Top, the trailer and the Bedford MK Tactical Aircraft Refuelier very well. I am very impressed with your working and seeing those images. A very well done there, Ratch.  😀

Please let me know, thanks.

Further to the above, part 35 is a UK "petroleum regulations" firewall to help keep bulk fuel leaks away from the engine and exhaust system. Even if someone wants to model a vehicle sold on into civilian service this part must be retained on any fuel tanker. (I used to be friends with the manager of a filling station and live about 5 miles from a fuel depot.)
