You might recall that I picked up some diecast fire engines at Triples last month. I've now made a start on altering their appearance. First up we have this Unimog. The fire engine guff was a plastic clip-on part which was soon unclipped leaving this useful looking flatbed. One of the many nice things about Solido models is they are held together by screws....
Personally I think that flatbed is crying out for a 20mm flak gun....

Looking nice - though I always associate those trucks with Africa rather than European Cold War stuff.
Wow! Very useful and very clever. Good skills Sir!
A great bit of conversion Tim. Mine is bigger though (And not red)!

Unimogs were produced in several countries - and sold to many more but it remains somehow very German.
Solo wargaming on a budget
It seemed like a good plan - after all, how many fire engines do I really need?

Mine has better tyres.
Looks good Tim, pretty sure the AAA gun is not beyond your bodging skills.
Cheers,

Excellent foil sir!

I have a suitable crappy plastic AA gun in stock...
Great work Tim! These we have in the Belgian army to!

I saw a load of Belgian Army 'mogs a couple of years ago. In Yorkshire! http://megablitzandmore.blogspot.co.uk/2013/12/the-belgian-invasion-of-yorkshire.html
