Here is a version of the 8 wheel armored car that does not exist in 1-87 scale it is what is known as sdkfz 234-4 8"rad". I combined a ROCO model of a 234-3 and added the cannon from a Trident model of the Anti tank gun Pak 40.

Here is a little trick I taught myself.....I've often wondered why the ROCO Corbitt 6X6 did not come with a canvas canopy for the cargo bed. Well, wonder no more, as I was playing around in my parts box the other day and came across a canopy for the ROCO M54. As you can see it is considerably longer than the bed of the Corbitt but the width was a good fit so I removed the excess and the rest, as they say, is "History"!

Thanks for the comments ....yes, it is very sanitary. Down the road I will add some more details and a little patina to set it off.

A small effort with a big result. Stephan (sk45139) gave me the idea of creating the Dodge WC 63 from a pair of ROCO WC 53. Here is the progress so far...
