"Rollbar" lol. Lookin great. You should fill the sunroof. Seems kindof a hazard for a race vehicle. How do the super swampers fith the stock rims? Keep up the great work!!

p.s. saw on hlj italeri is going to release a mercedes dakar truck. I am unsure of what it was.

Hello

Blubaja, I've understood that I must put accessories in the ceiling, correct? if it is thus, I do not agree with you... is a race car, not one of quickly assistance, reason why the ceiling will go without no type of accessory or roof rack

About the rims and tyres, look this:




The tires go fixed to those styrene pieces, since the tires are a little greater than the rims, but when he is everything painted as soon as it will be appraised

Bigfrit, very thanks for your reply

Now I will advance the Unimog, that have come to me today, and with the HDJ interior. I need to have ready both vehicles to paint and to place the decals at the same time. I will put new post to you with the Unimog...

See you!

Re: *** DAKAR PROJECT: Tamiya Land Cruiser HDJ80 ***

Hey,

I think there might be some misunderstanding somewhere. I meant, you usually don't see the glass opening on the top of the car, on race vehicles. This is what I meant:


Good luck on the unimog!!!! The kit is soso. You should open the hood.

hello blu!

Now yes I have understood to you... in these cases replaces the window by a metallic plate, just as with back windows, for that reason I haven't given importance him and I have not suppressed that window

Now enjoy the Unimog!!!

Greatings and excuse my bad english...
