I have wanted to do this for a long time. So I finally tore apart a NZG 215 to put the cab on my 245.


Some modifications to make the cab fit.

I even tinted the windows. It worked okay, I'm not sure I want to tint any other cab windows on models.

Looks good.

You should put the 245 cab on the 215 Teeth I don't think I've seen anybody do a first generation cab on a 215 yet.

Good job Ethan! I like the fact you added a styrene base for the part of the cab that extends out, it looks correct.
