TERRY'S T72M1"LETS ROLL"

Re: TERRY'S T72M1"GETTING STARTED
In an effort not to throw my Perdu project against the wall I started the T72. Being a Tamiya kit construction should be a easy thing and so far it has been. I plan to do this mainly out of the box, but I can't say that I won't add a few things here and there. I have started with the lower hull, just like the instructions say to do, and completed it. Here are some pic's and thanks for looking. Comments and suggestions are welcome. This will be my first modern Russian build.

Re: TERRY'S T72M1"WHEELS AND TRACKS"
Went to the bench last night and did all the wheels, sprockets, and the tracks. Thank you Tamiya for those poly caps. I assemblied everything to check alignments. I will take things apart to paint. Here are some progress pictures and thanks for looking.

I can see you (Terry) making what you have now into an all terrain vehicle for the SciFi Campaign (I almost wrote GB again). So many people replace those tracks but they look fine!

Yeah I think the kit tracks look great. They are a little stiff, but I think I can make them settle down with the hair dryer set on hot.
