About product

Fenders for the M8 and M20 armored cars

This partial photo-etched set from Royal Model replaces the plastic fenders of both related American cars with fine metal sheet with a molded relief. This set does not contain resin; it is purely work with metal and on one particular area of the vehicle. It is based on the dimensions of the Tamiya kit.

Why the fenders of all things

On the real car this is thin pressed sheet, which in service bent, got dented and not seldom was missing altogether. An injection mold, however, has to cast it in a thickness that corresponds more to armor than to sheet. Replacing it with metal is therefore among the few modifications that are visible on a finished model from a yard away. On top of that it allows an edge to be turned over, a dent from an impact to be suggested or a fender to be shortened, as tended to be the case on worn cars with combat units.

Two subjects, one set

The M8 Greyhound was a six-wheeled armored car with a rotating turret and a 37 mm gun, used for reconnaissance. The M20 was based on it, only it lacked the turret and carried the commander, signalers and men. Both vehicles have identical fenders, which is why the set deals with them together. What is more, you can fine-tune the edge of metal already glued on with the pressure of a thumb.

Who will reach for the set

  • modelers who want a quick and visible improvement
  • builders of American reconnaissance vehicles
  • those interested in damaged and worn cars
  • those who have experience of bending sheet

This is a partial accessory, not a whole kit. A bending tool, cyanoacrylate glue and paints are not enclosed.

FAQ

There is not. This item is made of photo-etched metal only.

It can be done over a sharp metal edge, but a long straight bend holds considerably less well. A bending tool simplifies the work markedly.

The M20 is based on the M8 and has the same fenders, so you seat one set of photo-etched parts on both subjects.

For the Tamiya kit in 1:35 scale. The base kit is not included in the package.
