Default RE: Winter tanking is here!

It's just a stock HL with a few off the shelf mods. I do have an agreement with Phil at RCtankwars to only send me grey, non camo tanks if he can so I can paint them.

Lets see...

3:1 gears
extra LED MG in the mantle
metal tracks and sproket
adjustable idler mount
side skirts ( most of the hangers have broken off already )
period correct headlight
engine screens ( made from the screen door my kids broke )
glass in periscopes ( made from the clear packing plastic my model RR came in )
workable gun travel lock ( drilled so a pzkw 3 track pin works as a hinge pin )
Scale " dummy " antenna ( made from the stock HL antenna ) moved to proper spot
Jacking block is real wood
TC sight
custom 3 color paint job ( hold airbrush in one hand, cocktail in other hand ) spray, sip, spray, sip, etc...

stuff I wanted to do but was too lazy...

spare track mounts ( part way done )
opening lids on storage bins
exhust support brackets

perhaps some day...<br type="_moz" />
