AC-40 based on ICM ZIL-131
Lights on
Lights are bright enough to be a bit "annoying" at night
Engine has been slightly improved by adding wiring
Footrests move freely on both sides
A folding ladder (on the left in the mounts) can be removed and opened, but this is not very convenient
This is how light switches and battery pack are made. Top switch is a common one, followed by turn signals, signalization, front light and auxiliary lighting. Block of resistors for adjusting the brightness of all groups of LEDs is hidden immediately behind the switch block.
For new models with lighting, I have already designed and ordered custom micro PCBs with triggers and built-in resistors to control the light with buttons, not switches.

Michael KohlI have a soft spot for the ZIL131. As a fire truck it is a nice subject too. Well done model made special with the lighting. Some more pics are appreciated. Your model deserves it.

Nikita DThanks for your attention to my model and such a high appreciation of it 🙂
It's nice to see that I'm not only one interested in it. I added more photos with descriptions.

NeulingOne of my favorites too. Very well done and improved with burning lights. Modelling at its best!
