Hauler 1/87 Tatra T813 6x6 Upgrades

By Jacob Russell

Hauler recently issued some aftermarket parts for the SDV Model's Tatra T813 6x6 Heavy Prime Mover. Let's have a look at them:

HLR87012 TATRA T813 6x6 PE

This small photo-etch fret includes 26 parts. These include windshield wipers, mirrors, cab entry steps, etc. Additional items includes 2 different styles of front grill, storage locker covers, straps for the spare water jug and parts for the spare wheel hoist.

HLR87088 TATRA T813 resin cast wheels

This is a finely cast set of 6 "super single" flotation tires plus a spare.

SDV Models' Tatra T813 is an accurate and well detailed kit. The PE parts, especially the grill, wipers and mirrors, are more in scale than the kit parts. The resin wheels are also a nice upgrade. I recommend these aftermarket items and I would like to thank Hauler for the review samples.
