Now SWB!

Nicely done, Pat. I've got a couple of these Italeri Land Rovers, and thought about making one a SWB. Any issues with the conversion?

Thanks Trevor. I took a slice from behind the doors and at the end of the chassis after the spring hangers. The only thing to remember is to measure and measure  keeping all saw cuts at right angles. I had built it once after taking the first slice behind the doors and then realising it wasn't short enough, so cut through the body and chassis together upside down, keeping completely straight at right angles to the body. It's the first time doing this! I've seen so many top-chops on custom cars but far too scared to do it! But feel after this one I might, just might try one!

Oh, ak have just bought out (just this week) a kit of an SWB Lanny but it's £35 here in the UK!
