So I am calling this one done, aside from the crew figures. The kit itself was built OOB, although I did add a Combat Series brass machine gun pintle mount and took an Academy M1919 Browning .30 cal. from my spares bin for the gun itself. Most of the stowage is Value Gear, aside from the jerry cans, which are a mix of Tamiya, Academy, and 3D printed. Base paint is AK Real Colors. Most of the kit decals self destructed due to age, so replacements came from my spares...

Beautifully done. Judging from the stowage, the wife must be coming along on the trip!

Thanks guys! Not bad results for an 80's/90's boxing of a 70's vintage kit. :hmm:
