Militant Unimog

I call this one the Militant Unimog.
Before someone complains that I've ruined a Hard-to-Find Unimog with the open gaps in the base ... here's a little history on the beater that became this model. Someone had pried the body off the base with a screw driver or other tool. The front bumper was cracked and half of the bumper angled up and the other half down. The base was cracked and broken right at the strengthening point where the base was filled in. I pretty much had to open up those to areas on the base to fix the model. While it now looks like the Hard-to-Find open base model, it was not. This was truly someone's trash before it went into the 1/64th body shop.
