Do we think, with a touch of DW40 oil, we could get these vehicles moving again ?
Great job there.

I like the look. Seems like:

1. knocked out this month

2. Knocked out this year (or decade)

3. Been here for a LONG while.

Some parts of Africa are rainforests, some deserts, both are eating up abandoned vehicles really fast (rainforests are obvious, deserts have the big daily temperature changes).

I’m amazed it doesn’t have a parking ticket on it.
Looks like it’s been in that car park some time.  lol

But Bob, put a parking ticket on it then you'd have to tow it away! :D

Fourteen months later...

Having literally cleared out all 28mm stuff, and having these taunting me for over a year I put the Mk 1 eyeball to the test and chucked some paint at 20mm.
I now have eye strain...

These are from Under Fire Miniatures, Rhodesian mine search team.
