The suspension units were tedious but can out OK in the end and getting the turret floor attached to the upper turret and getting it to rotate took me quite a while. I could not find any crew to fit inside the turret without a fair bit of modification to them so I will probably come back to that later. There is not a lot of room to get out with the hatch back unless it could lie further back and flatter, either that or the crews must have been slim in stature. I did not go too overboard with the stowage and not sure as to what markings to apply yet. looking forward to the release of the SoD, despite the suspension. Gecko if you are reading this could do with some crew. Anyone know if there are any in the SoD? The 2 figure here are from Bronco and Tamiya. Cheers Kevin
Nice model Kevin ... getting in and out of the hull required some acrobatics: A Daimler in Canadian service (8th Recce Regt/2nd Cdn Inf Div) photographed at Ulft on 31 March 1945.
Hi Stolpi, Yes so I see from your photo. Unusual marking on the front box and turret side, 457? That cannot be part of the census number surely, a vehicle number within the regiment perhaps? Cheers Kevin
That's quite the crazy way of entering a vehicle! Now I want to know more, about why. But there aren't any actual books on the Daimler armoured car, are there?
I saw an aged veteran do it! Just like that. More of 10 Troop, 43rd Recce Regt. Black berets suggest a 1945 photograph
