Hi All

I show you my new Proyect. The Ford V3000S, ICM Nro 35411, scale 1/35

The Model



The advances

















So far the assembly work is simpler than the Ford G917T, guess it must be by previous experience, as they are quite similar. We will see the results as you progress.

Best regards, Omar

Very tidy work Omar.
A lot neater than I managed with my kit. Some fragile parts on that chassis from what I remember.
Looking forward to see what you do further. It might inspire me to get mine off the 'half-built' shelf

Food for thought - Conversion wise, with or without the wood cab.

Really super job!

May I play too?

Here's my rendition: a 1941 Ford 1.5 ton truck, in the colors of my late father-in-law's farm. The stake bed was scratchbuilt and the truck was demilitarized. Only after I completed the project that the German-built Fords used the earlier 1936 Ford truck cabs on their '41s. oh well, close enough is good enough.
