![Album image #1 Album image #1](/albums/img/3/1/1/1635311-28909-77-720.jpg)
An old second hand box.

This is my starting point: A butchered kit, partially badly built.

These are the decent parts…

This might give some vibrations irl?

Will I bother cleaning this up?

And this is why it will be a stealth truck. This is nigh unsaveble.

Worse?
![Album image #8 Album image #8](/albums/img/3/1/6/1635316-28909-66-720.jpg)
Yes, worse.

Not starting yet. I wanted to see what I had bought second hand…
Sit down and hold on tight!

Mate, I've saved much worse, clear parts. However, it's a bit nerve racking and you can't believe what you're actually doing! It involves sanding with various grit paper. Alclad do a little set, and it's worth every penny.

Luckily Jezza's truck has these large flat black painted lines on the windows. So not much salvaging needed.
And I did remove a frame from a 1/72 canopy once…

You can make a great dio of Clarkson ramming a brick wall. Or have the aftermath with Jeremy lying on the ground with the Stigs cousin standing over him.

Following closely! Been wanting to build the Top Gear version of this truck myself...

Mmmm. Things got a little more interesting. No instructions in the box, nor on Scalemates.
