Thanks for the links! That Oshkosh 8x8 looks fantastic.

I've spent the last couple of weeks fighting the urge to rebuild the rear sections. After making them last year, I've since found some better reference photos that shows they're too narrow at the top, by about 3mm on each side, or around 1/4" total. With the bottom at 180mm, the top should be 170mm wide, instead of 164. The error doubles the angle of the side panels and brings the top inside the roof corners on the cab. This is only visible from specific angles. The thing is that even if I fix it, that alignment will still be wrong because of some inaccuracies on the cab. This is probably a silly detail to spend so much mental energy on. I should just leave it alone......right? But maybe not?
