Quality |
Very good. As for most kits of heavy trucks there are three critical steps: cab, body and chassis. These sub-sets are all cleanly designed and moulded. Most of the work consists in removing the pieces from their resin blocks. The cab will require a bit of attention to be aligned with the bonnet. The interior side of the wheels, particularly the rear ones, is moulded flat, but that is a small detail. Another fault is the lack of the canvas top cover, which is a pity because it was rather common, especially in cold seasons. All in all a very good kit. |
Instruction sheet | yes |
Decals | no |
General Impression & Note | The Büssing NAG 4500 A heavy cargo truck was the workhorse of the German heavy transport and was extensively employed on all WWII fronts. |
