Hi "Max" , Have a look at my post in the thread Airfix Landrover kits posted 22/05/14. In answer to your question can it be done its a big YES, even more so as mine was based on a short wheelbase Oxford Die cast model of a series 1 soft top. This was inspired by the full scale version that was trialed on the Longmoor Railway. To do a similar setup on a LWB hard top should be a piece of cake! i'm currently working on a road railed Liebherr excavator thats going to run on road wheels on the track with guide wheels in a very similar way to the Railtrack/Network Rail landy in this thread. Do have a look at the bits n bobs Nigel Lawton has to offer, ie motors gears & small driveline components. That's my source of parts...all generally aimed at the 009 modellers. All very well made & quite cheap too! Ps You may need a good quality magnifying glass by the way, this is a tiny world!!
