RMweb Gold griffgriff Posted June 23, 2010 RMweb Gold Share Posted June 23, 2010 During the 'Showcase' I was very impressed by the road vehicles displayed by Jim Smith Wright on New Street - particularly the very smart BRS MAN - kinda fell for for it and I was really surprised at it's humble origins. A little later on I saw one on the DEMU stand, so I paid the £2 asked and trotted home wondering what to do with it. The story so far... The £2 purchase. A tractor unit chassis. Seeing if it fits. A bit of a tidy. Some panel detail - needs a bit more work. I had hoped of doing one of P&O's tractor units working out of Southampton but they had 'sleeper' cabs (and another axle!)... So I shall have to look for another subject. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jim s-w Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 Cool Its worth lopping off the chassis so that the back lines up with the wheel arches. HTH Jim Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold griffgriff Posted June 24, 2010 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted June 24, 2010 It kinda does no - it was more or less a test fit... I do have to get a photo of the area just forward of the fifth wheel... i.e. the engine - it's not going anywhere as is Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
