Folks at long last some pics of my Toad Tour Hummer





Would it be correct to paint the interior in sand?

No keep it green. I find Tamiya NATO Green to be fine. Is this just a straight build or are you adding AM parts?

Jeff, thanks for that. Green it is, the only am stuff it'll get is the Tamiya accessory set.

Lord UK UPS Type Dude

Looking good so far. Build this one and then park it next to one of your fantastic Chally's as a multi national tribute to "Da Toadster"

If you look here
Chally II

I'm building the Tamiya Chally II so I might just do that.

Jeff, Most if not all Tan HMMWV's are painted Tan on the inside.

I'd like to see the pics, but the webserver here is blocking the pictures.

Very CLEAN, as in very nice build. If I recall, all the HMMWVs I've ever had had a "green" steering wheel....but that's been at least five years. Just a consideration.
