Matilda

Matilda   The Queen of the Desert



This is a project I had started years ago but never finished. Now that there is the new Tamiya kit of the Matilda I decided to try it again. The interior that I started on had to be scraped and a new one scratch built.

I'll be doing the blog on this project, the Matilda, in parts because of the complexity of building the motor compartment.


The first part will be the scratchbuilding of the motor compartment including the twin Leyland motors.
