Hey, Terry!

The tank is coming along nicely. Great work on the tiny little details. Too bad there wasn't
some sort of magical way to do road wheels, huh?

It is looking good!

Cheers,
James

:laugh: Never is any magic and this one even more difficult because of suspension changes.

Got my AFV workable tracks today and I just had to put some together. The fit of the end connectors is so close that no glue is needed. I also reworked and attached the shocks and built the sprockets. Each shock had to be cut and drilled out to allow for them to be adjustable because of the lowered hull. Here is a few pictures of the fun so far. Thanks for looking and comments are welcome.
