Been a bit lazy with the camera lately.....

But there are two nearly finished cargo doors in there (somewhere)...
Neat that there's a paint boot in the next room, rollin rollin rollin ...

Hinge carrier in place

Had to modify this part a fair bit to make it fit right.

Meanwhile

Small bits and pieces start showing up.. New original style rivets for the ID tags are pretty cool.

Slow progress lately

First door almost done, door handle area still needs mods and openings need to be adjusted

Movie-props or barnfinds?

After about 4 years of negotiations, we finally scored some great parts for an upcoming project last night.... This genuine Schwimmwagen-propellar-aggregate was pulled off a Schwimmer back in 1946 when the vehicle was purchased from the Norwegian Army to be converted to private use. It was picked up by a man that wanted to use it on his fishingboat back then....stored inside a stack of fire-wood from '46 to '65, then bought by an early German war vehicle collector. It then sat in his barn from '64 until yesterday..... now it will form a fundamental cornerstone of an upcoming Screwdrivers-project. Stay tuned.

One step closer, underside ready for paint
