I am running short of words of praise to describe the work that you do Dave.

I think I’m going to have to reuse a couple of them now.

Fantastic, great build going here, you are indeed the master of all trucks [bow][bow]

Thanks again. I should be finished in a couple of days. Then I start something that I haven’t built in a couple of years. German Armor. The King Tiger by Tamiya with Porsche Turret. Waiting on the new Barrel, PE and Zimmerit to get here. Any suggestions on after market tracks to fit this one?

Looking forward to see the finished pictures. As for your King tiger tracks Fruilmodel and modelkasten tracks are good.

Hi Mark, of the two tracks that you suggested which would you use?

14

I’m a fan of the Fruil tracks myself Dave. Being all metal they lend some weight to the project but I have heard some very good reports about the MK tracks too.

15

Great looking model so far, Animal…! Where do you get the info about those monsters…?

16

Fruil tracks it will be. Thanks Robert.

DJ, I get the info on the Vietnam era gun Trucks from my memory and from photos from some of my Bros who served on the Gun Trucks. As far as the Slammer goes I got the first photos from here. I got the rest from the internet off a webshots photo page and from a friend who sent me some pics of the beast.
