    M32B1 by UM

    Another subject I like is American WWII recovery equipment, and although I haven't actually built anything I have acquired a few kits, one of which is UM's M32. The plan was to get a Dragon M4A1, which I did, and do some kit bashing and to that end I started the UM kit as a bit of practice...
