This photos shows the chassis rails, engine (bottom of photo, left of center), as well as the winch and the long one-piece exhaust pipes.

No slide molding was used on this sprue.

The chassis rails tried to incorporate as much detail as possible but the torsion bar travel stops are molded on and do not look good when compared to photos. Fortunately, they will be mostly hidden behind the wheels.

Tools are molded in place but this is not so bad since they are located underneath the crew member's legs or behind the crew compartment.
