M8 M20 Mudguards, 1/72 - Hauler HLH72101

Hauler HLH72101 is a 1/72 detailing set dedicated to the mudguards of American vehicles M8 and M20. Made in photo-etched brass, this accessory is designed for the corresponding Italeri model kits.

Mudguards are particularly delicate parts on a miniature armored vehicle. Replacing them with photo-etched metal parts makes it possible to achieve more realistic thicknesses at this scale and to enhance the overall appearance of an M8 or M20 replica.

The M8 Greyhound and the M20 Armored Utility Car belong to the family of American armored vehicles used during World War II. The M8 was a reconnaissance armored car, while the M20 was derived from the same mechanical base for use as an armored utility vehicle.

Photo-etching requires careful preparation: precise removal of the parts, suitable bending, and gluing with an adhesive compatible with metal. After assembly, painting allows the mudguards to be integrated into the vehicle’s overall finish—whether new, worn, or weathered.
