Where's the fire?

My purchases at Triples last weekend included a box of cheap 1/43 scale diecasts.  Mostly Solido fire engines, these will no doubt show up on airfields or be bodged into other things.
The box also contained this rather challenged Panhard AML.  Aside from a wheel shortage it is very saveable.

I can see this little Berliet being bodged into a radio van for a brigade HQ.

The rear structure of this Unimog unclips, so I may decide it's of more use as a flatbed.

    Ooooh yeah! What was the name of that show from the early days of Channel 4 (UK) were the guy used to rip the seats out of old cars and make them into armchairs and stuff? I can see Tim doing a small scale version of that complete with 80's punk sound track.

    They look like a useful set of models. Who knows what they will become.

    Cheers,

    Pete.
