Here's an Opel mule I'm converting to a Funker. Step 1 remove cargo bed & clean up Koffer under storage.

Step 2, do interior.

C&Cs welcomed. PaulE

 

[Mini Me]

Thanks Rick.

That's too small even for me!! You must get a headache after an hour doing this stuff Paul?? Wonderful to see the final results though

When I first retired, I was in the cave for hours at a stretch except for meals & weekend family time. Now a lot less, but the scale hasn't bothered me except for the availability of certain models/figures. I've been working this scale since the 60s when I discovered the ROCO line. PaulE

Hey Paul,

I always seem to miss so much cool stuff on here and only find it after it's finished most of the time. I like this and I love the Maultier with funk Koffer on the back. A scratchy interior has to be a little nerve wracking Sir, but will be so cool. On a side note, the wheel wells on the Koffer had half round doors on them and were made into storage lockers when mounted on a Maultier,

And if you want to, you can build a spare tire rack on the cab roof too.....

Hope all is well in downtown Ohio and the snow is not too deep. Nuthin' here yet but rain...…………..

Prost

Allen, climate weirding is alive & well in Ohio. ZeroF w/10"of snow one day and 70F & sun a couple days later. 18F today so cave is down to 55F.
You mean like this one on the right? Didn't do int. on that one.

Still digging around for headset heads for funkers. PaulE

 

[Mini Me]

Preiser tank crews for headset heads, all I know of. That other Opel has more antenna than an L.A. low rider! :tongue-out2:
Looking good, Rick H.

 

[minitnkr]

ArsenalM offers some. A set of four or five I think with their WWII German tanks or separate. Preiser has a set they offer with a pair of funkers & an officer for some more $. They're floating around here somewhere. PaulE
