Another M3 Halftrack Truck tỉ lệ 1/20

Lots of parts, many moving pieces, some tiny pieces, but fun to assemble if you like a challenge. Will add some additional decor later. While you can print at whatever detail works for you, this was printed at .2mm layer with the exception of the hinge printed at .12mm. Some parts require supports, however I found I could always orient the support side to a hidden side during printing.

Provided some accessories to enhance you truck here when you have the body built.

Body

0 Build a chassis and drivetrain in my previous project

0.1 test fit everything before glueing... I am pretty awful with glue…

1 Glue bed and rear fender to Chassis frame using guides to align bed and align rear fender to bed and frame.  Rubber bands came in handy for holding major pieces in place while epoxy set.

2 Glue cab to frame aligning with the bed.

3 Glue the bed roof edge to the top edge of the bed

4 Glue the engine bay to frame and cab align with tabs on frame and cab

5 Glue Grill to engine bay, add the Grill guard whenever, it slips between the frame and lower grill behind front bumper.

6 Glue Cab Roof to the top of the Bed, Cab, Engine Bay

7 Glue the Air Cleaner and Brake module to inside engine bay.  Align cleaner arm with carb above exhaust manifold.  Module goes on firewall on other side.

8 Glue Left and right Fenders to cab and engine bay

9 cut windshield armor in the obvious 2 parts, glue 3 hinges in locator spots.  Glue top strip to the windshield.  (The hinges are annoyingly small but seem to work well once set)

10 Glue 2 hinges to each hood and then to the engine bay

11 Assemble cab doors with 2 hinges, then use 2 more hinges to attach to cab

12 Attach the bed door to bed with 2 hinges

13 Glue side racks to bed, align to top of rear fender and run evenly down side.

14 Glue Gas Can racks to cab

15 Glue headlights to Engine Bay

16 glue Bumpet to rear

17 glue control/steering wheel to inside cab
