Here's another view of Theo Gijsbers' FKL (Theo thinks it stands for Fahrzeug Kran Leicht, or light vehicle crane) and is a Liebherr crane conversion for the German Army. The model is from HO-Military depot, and is resin with etched parts. Theo painted it in non military colors as it might be in use by a contractor who bought the machine second hand from military surplus. He added miniature steel cable (from ROCO) and a mini chain for the hook. Also shown in Photo Gallery 90.
