Haven't seen the real thing, but this looks good. It's the first DUKW model I've seen that isn't green. :)

Very nice indeed and very original too.

Of course, we did agree on a "no amphibians" rule for the GB but you were having so much fun, and doing such a good job to boot, that I really didn't want to stop you :grin:

Banning "Odd newts" would probably disqualify quite a few forum members! :ha:

Nice job with that G.R. You've certainly got your DUKWs in a row! :lol:
