Just reading the article in TMW on this kit. What level of build level / experience do you think would be needed to complete this kit?
Obviously having learnt to drive HGV's in one of these would be nice to have one on the shelf and incorporated into one of my three long term build projects.

Its a full resin kit as opposed to a transkit so you might find it easier than mating a resin transkit to an Italeri chassis.
I would usually advise a novice to try an Italeri truck kit first, but if you have modelling experience in other disciplines then its a kit. Just a resin one.
I have made more than one of Howards transkits and they are very very good.

I'm slowly doing the KFS Scania conversion, I've added the extra rear axle and modified the chassis ready to change it from cabover to conventional just got to get back in the groove. But I'm just a bit unsure of a full multimedia kit like this one.

Pat, I collected the Bedford from Howard at SMW, it's a superb kit but in my opinion, it's not a kit for the beginner. David Jane's pattern making is superb and hope I can do it justice when it's built, I have used resin before but not built a full multimedia kit and the Bedford will require all my skills. I also have the Scania crew cab from KFS and hope to start that soon.
