Default Re: WW2 AEC Matador

Bit of a funny weekend discoverd that i had not left enough room under the cab for the gearbox and motor the plan was to have the motor partially into the cab where the real engine sits but i would have had to cut part of the floor away as well which would have been visible.
So after a bit of head scratching i have managed to get the gearbox and motor low enough for the cab to fit and also clear the axle.
One of the things i wanted was for the steering servo to be in roughly the same position as the steering drop arm on the real thing,by turning the gearbox round i have managed to achieve this as you will see in the pictures.
Also added a few minor details but as it is white plastic i dont seem to be able to get a decent picture
