Your in Todd!!! Upon checking the box I noticed that some of the suspension parts have been glued on the lower hull.Evidently this kit had a previous owner who gave up on it.  |

Cool! I'm wondering when one of the big manufacturers are going to get around to doing a new-tooled 60. Can't be too long, right?

Those tanks are my favorite... M60A2, M551, M47, T28, T29, T30... I hope to see this one through. Any special AM or modifications? I hear the rear deck or exhaust area is incorrect and there's a correct kit available for it in resin. Jeff |
