Well made a start today on a Camo / green Army style C5. 8)
Still a way to go, its just getting the time to to do it .. 8)
Ran out of paint, so waitng now for a couple more to finnish it off then i will start the electrics.

Keep that green colour and do a 7UP branded one! 8)
-
Is that military grey or battleship grey
-
Its Green, but the pic makes it look Grey, but yes its the same spec as UK army vehicles.
Not finnished yet still some work to do... ;D
Its going to be named "RAMBO"
-
Rambo First Blood ? I like it Plod, its good to do something different with an bodyshell that otherwise would be no good, keep up the theme, I have thought of a Knight Rider one, just need the time money and space, but intend to get two more C5's yet :)

That's looking pretty cool. Always good to see something different :)
I've also got a bodyshell that's waiting to be played with .. although i'm still not completely sure what i'll be doing to it yet.

Hi. On the Land rover what are those 2 box things with a cone on ( above front lights and sat on the wing ), there is also one on a stack behind door ?
Good camo job on c5, looks like another re-birth .M

Looking good Plod 8)

Looking good Plod - great to see all these 'themed' one's appearing - even better that it saved a scrapped shell !!!
-
The great thing is that the more battered it gets, the better it will look!
A knight rider one would be cool as well.
-
Looking great .Just one thing have you had the body' repaired ....its just that I have a couple that need some work on and I was interested in how to do them ???????? .Bye Chas

Hi Chas
The one with the serious damage is going to end up as a flower pot, the other one that i am using for the Camo project has danage to the bottom corner of the near side footwell (this seems to be a common place for these to go)
I was intending to patch with some sort of plastic/fibreglass and then reinforce with some aluminium (similar to that used on wings of landrovers) Retro Andys idea 8)

I was going to put a matching piece in the other footwell and then spray it up black.
