Next post is for the cargo box.
No real build issues. The walls and floor were easy enough, just a box. The benches had enough structural parts inside to stiffen the box as a result of their installation. Sockets are designed in to facilitate proper installation of the tarp hoops. Greg

This post covers the road wheel arms, drive wheel and idler mounts and rear tow hitch spring.
Absolutely no issues with construction. I did make a gage to set the proper road wheel arm locations. Also, shown is the Tamiya paint I've been using to cover large touch-up surfaces. The cap looks too light, but the final color looks really close to my eye. Greg

This post features wheels. There are not millions of them, thankfully. Drive sprockets took a little work. Road wheels took a little more. All came together in the end. Return rollers on top were positioned by a provided jig. This was most welcome.

Then there were tracks (and a few stray details, like fenders and tow hooks)
The laser cut tracks were a snap! And then it was complete! What a joy to build. Highly recommended (with use of laser tracks). Greg
