Message to Cliff - mate, mate, when you get back from your seminar how would you like to take on a commission to build this model. With your eye converting pictures to measurments it should be an interesting project.

Bob my friend this is a model I have toyed with making for a long time. Either this CMP or one of the Ford or Chev MCP versions.

I have the hard to get parts which is enough CMP kit parts to do the cab and axles and if some one wants to 'donate' a Tamiya 1/35 scale carrier kit and a set of AM (After Market) tracks I am happy to build the model between other projects for nothing apart from the joy of doing another unusual vehicle. I also reserve the right to write and publish a build article on the model build.

One thing with the model is to decide whether to build it just with the concrete ballast in place or with a rear cargo bed as shown on the Ford & Chev MCP conversions.

Cheers
Cliff

PS> not long now and I'm off to Brisbane for the conference and I gotta admit I am starting to have a case of nerves as this will be my first big event since before I got ill 5 years ago.
