I found a dinky ERF fire tender which needs to be lovingly restored rather than throwing it away.
I need to fill in a number of holes on the roof, where in the past would have been, a hose reel, a search light and piece of metal and over the cab section hooks to secure a wheeled escape.
What can I use to fill in the holes on the roof, some one has suggested tamiya putty , or tamiya epoxy putty quick type 87051 or is there something else I could use?
In the front two holes some led lights as part of the flashing beacon. What do I need to purchase for this effect? Does it come in kit form?
Also how easy is it to do?
Rather than replacing the wheeled escape which I have, I wanted just to replace it with a replica 35ft ladder. In the seventies the fire service I was in would remove wheeled escapes and replace it with a different ladder system.
Any help would be gratefull..
