photon Posted April 17, 2016 Report Share Posted April 17, 2016 Friend of mine is mad keen on WW2 U.S Vehicles he has 2 trucks and a Jeep that he takes to the shows, War and Peace etc etc! He wanted a pair of Motorola walkie talkies, originals cost an arm and a leg and don't work so came up with these. Friend of mine who is a electronics wizz put in 2 PMR radios and wired them to the proper switches so looked and work authentically. These were done a while ago, just found the pics.

wisdom Posted April 17, 2016 Report Share Posted April 17, 2016 Very realistic did you make the serial number plates too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
photon Posted April 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 Very realistic did you make the serial number plates too? Credit has to go to my friend who installed the radios, plates are from an old stationary counter, the serial no. is copied from an original then laminated then attached. Without the help of my friend the result would have been a non working military looking bird feeder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
