3/4 ton WC51 Weapons Carrier Beauty Shots

Post by MK » Fri Mar 31, 2006 10:00 am

Here are some pics of my newly acquired WC51 loaded with build-a-rama accessories. I love how this thing looks. I did have some breakage issues with the steering wheel and rear canopy skeleton. I also popped the seats off and moved them back a little so my driver (from the Willys) wouldn't rub his belly up with the newly glued steering wheel. Ignore the plastic band on the spare tire. I am "training" the tire mount to stand upright. It was leaning a little when I bought it.

Great use of the Build-a-Rama accessories. That's pretty much what I did with mine, save that there are also a couple troops in the back as well. A cool little vehicle!

Being a huge Mopar fan, I think I need to get a few of those now. Those look sweet outfitted! :D

Thanks everyone! I just was surprised how great this Dodge was with all the negative posts I saw. Yes, a few things were broken when I bought it, but for only $23 I could not go wrong. I think the reason I like this more than than 1 1/2 ton weapons carrier is this doesn't have the molded tarp on top obscuring the view of anything you put in the back. I think its time to customize a skeleton for the back of that one.

MK, beatiful work and extraordinary detail. Thanks for the tip on Build-a-rama. I'll be looking at that place for some of those items. Very useful alright.

Thanks again and congrats on the excellent work.
