AEC Mk3 Ergomatic Cab Kit
Scaled at 1:43.5 (7mm/ 1 Foot), this cab is available for modellers producing their own road vehicles for 0 gauge model railways and dioramas. This cab is the final revision of the AEC Ergomatic Cab. When the Ergomatic cab was partially retooled for the 1968 Leyland range there was not an equivalent re-tooling for the AEC range. With the use of the unmodified cabs being restricted to AEC there were some economies with grille panels being changed to suit those of the Leyland range. AT00385 represents a cab that has retained the earlier pattern upper grille whilst being fitted with a 1968 pattern lower grille. AT00386 represents a cab that has been completed with a complete set of 1968 pattern grilles and the AEC branding relocated to between the cab ventilation and main radiator grilles. The kit comprises cab body, cab interior (not including steering wheel), rear view mirrors, indicators and windscreen wipers. All parts are 3D CAD designed and printed in Photo-reactive resin.£20.00More variants availableDumper Tipper Body Kit

The robust and reliable S80 was popular with major quarry and construction companies, with one third of all build being tipper versions. Once sold on by their original owners to smaller operators S80 tippers remained in use into the 1990s. The cab kit is designed on 3D Cad and is printed in photoreactive resin. The kit comprises the cab, interior, rear view mirrors and windscreen wipers. A full drawing describing the cutting and forming of the cab glazing is provided.
