AEC Mercury Tipper

For 1:43.5 modellers wishing to represent scenes from the late 1960s to mid-1980s this detailed 3D printed kit of an AEC Mercury Tipper is ideal for a smaller lorry.

The tipper is a general purpose/dump truck style vehicle, with a horizontally split rear door as typically used by aggregate operators and road surfacing contractors but also popular with agricultural hauliers when moving root crops. The detailed resin printed cab features separately fitted windscreen wipers and indicators (as appropriate to the cab) and a detailed cab interior. The FDM printed chassis is designed to be easily assembled. The FDM printed tipper body can readily be modified to suit a sheeted load or have details added to convert it into a road dressing tipper.

Full instructions are provided for the kit including assembly and glazing drawings.

Variations of this kit are also available as to build 1964-1968 Leyland Super Comet and 1968-77 Leyland Lynx, see kits AT00368 & 372-373.
