Ah, this will be a neat subject, even it’s “Allied” LOL.
Hi Tony, your starting 2013 with a blast, keep up the good work. Terrt
I got this on order, not jealous though…[:^)]
Hello Tony!
That machine is looking good, I wish you a happy year 2013 and good luck with this one, have a nice day

Tony: I’ve been eyeballing the Dragon M7 Priest but have been holding off buying anything else until I actually build something. Will be following your build here vicariously [Y]
Woohoo! I thought you would tackle this one in 2013 Tony and glad to see I wasn’t disappointed. Looking forward to seeing what you do with this one. [Y]
I wonder why no one else is showcasing their building of this kit? I know it’s being built but never see a blog???
I’m not too proud or bashful to show my fanny, at least i’m trying so others don’t make the same mistakes I do.
It’s a hobby and only plastic[:(DD]

Check out this kit detail, casting numbers:
Not bad for small stuff huh

Tony, I’m quite sure this will be up your usual standard, looking forward to following your build…cheers…Kenny
Everything looks great so far. But the driver’s seat/station is on the wrong side…[;)]
You notice huh Stik?
They don’t like NASCAR racin much either.[:|]
Tony lee
Well as long as they got the “front towards enemy” part right, who cares if they drive on the wrong side of the road or add un needed "u"s in words like color and honor.[;)] But I must confess that I do think a Formula 1 racer looks far better than a NASCAR racer, but I will go watch either one[H]
Thanks for the WIP thread on this subject Mutt. I do want to get one of these kits one day. For now yours will do vicariously.[t$t]
I have often wondered what the differences were between the Sexton and the Priest other than the guns and the driving positions. It looks like the basic vehicles were built by two different manufacturers. Was the Sexton built on the Canadian Ram chassis? I know one was British and the other American designs, but there must be more to the story.
Man, that detail is SICK! Remember when we used to go through the most ridiculous means to get those casting numbers? Cutting raised letters and numbers off of sprue pieces with razor blades, slicing thumbs and fingers, etc?
Gosh–kids today don’t know how good they’ve got it! lol
[:'(]
Yes the Sexton is based off of the Ram and used the 25pdr instead of the Priest’s 105mm on a M3 Chasis.
It’s Friday[t$t]
A lot fewer parts for the gun than what Bronco’s 25pdr has.
Have a GREAT weekend people
