Thanks Olly!

I usually have several builds going(especially kits in small sized boxes I can take with me when I'm away for some reason).

I started construction on the QLD last summer, but then made a break to finish the R-142N.Now it is ready, so I returned to the QLD again and will next finish the BLG-60M2 AVLB build, it idles for more than a year already.

Thanks Ingo!
It was a fun bild with a lot of research and kit parts modifications.

Thanks Alec!
I developed a crush for these magnificently ugly British WWII lorries 🙂

Yes, they do possess a certain aesthetic 👍

Ugly British lorries?!!!
Quite right, that's why I love them as well.😉
I'm proud of the fact that we gave blind designers a job when the rest of the world wanted beautiful. 😄

🙂 🙂 🙂
I said magnificently ugly, Gorby😉
Emphasis on functionality over visualy appealing design gave birth to a special kind of Imperial aesthetics(like Alec K mentioned), that I like so much!

Special wheel hubs ?

Angel Yovtshev
I've used kits wheel hubs, Olly.
I bought an SKP British Wheels set to replace the wrong tyres, but decided against using it because its wheel hubs were not appropriate for Bedford QLD.

Marder III
For the price IBG make a bloody good kit with interesting vehicles (take note Dragon!)

Sure Marder III!

But bear in mind that the QLD suffered a lot of modifications and even if I decided to build it not as an early, but as a late production vehicle, there are still modifications and additions required- like reworking mirrors, adding stiffeners to both front fenders, trimming radiator housing top and replacing radiator filler cap, adding: gas detection tray, towing schackles, cold weather radiator canvas, hand crank e.t.c. -these are all either missing from the kit or wrong.Load bed's tilt also needs reworking if it should represent the type used most commonly on Bedford QL lorries, while the tilt rods are totally wrong for a Bedford WWII vehicle.
