Emhar 1/24 Bedford OSBT 5-ton Tipper Truck

[Ferrets Bueller]

I saw this in my local Modelzone and just had to get one, ivve put my bismark build on hold for now as i was itching to build this great looking model.

Im going for the grey over black and red colours in the British road services livery.

First impressions are this is a well made kit and it all fits together superbly i have had no fit issues at all, infact alot of this model could be held together without glue the fit is that good.

I forgot to get a piic of the sprues as i was that eager to get started on it but there are plenty of sprue piic on this thread here Emhar Bedford 'O' Series Tipper

That looks stunning so far Paul, a very handsome model and you're really doing it some justice in an excellent build.

Well she is all done and wat a nice kit is was to put together one of the best ive done i think. Everything went together perfectly bar the offside engine cover. I gotta get the coal truck version next.

That is a nice looking build you have there. I have just started the OLBD and posted some pictures of the chasse. I am trying to sweet talk my wife into buying the OSBT but she is needing tyres for the car so i will just need to wait and see.

But well done on your build.
