You got 10 weeks to save up for the KIT ..........and it will be in the £150-£190 range aye BARV

But what was not said was the hulls were weakened to extent that some cracked and 1 seemingly even droppped the whole assembly ...on the move .........it not a nice thought to have a weakened hull :shithappens: ....its a B@@@@@ to change a wheel station in the field aye BARV ps----white glue works on the tyres --mine been on and at 4 shows ...never moved--also paint with the same @40-60 and dry 24 hrs before paint .........works for me

Was with the unit that did the up-armouring on them at Marchington (Uttoxiter)in '72 (Op Bracelet) First 2 never made it out the gate ....wheel stations couldn't take the extra armour :shithappens: aye BARV

No plans as such for most of my builds ---I use what I find but 90% its from photographs from which I extrapolate --"guesstimate "---and can usually get within a 'mm' or so ----thats about 1 1/2 "(actual)---and hope the accummulation of micro error does not get out of hand As long as I have at least 2 sizes I will try to enlarge /decrease the size of pics to scale and from there ,with Mk1 eyeball,and a few little tricks I have sussed out , I start to "line -out" and work from there aye BARV
