Default RE: Ford CMP Gun Tractor build

heres the chassis built from brass and the wheels and rear axle modded to look better and have the wheelbase at the correctish width







rear axle and one side done just a wheel hub with fake bolts to add to the depth the hub end is from an old pershing wheel





the otherside showing the parts needed from the halftrack



installed rear axle showing the rough placement a set of rear leaf springs will be made to give a bit of movement here and also achieve the correct wheel height





front axle removed from the halftrack and added to the chassis i may have to reduce the height on this one and strech the front axle a bit with this i can correct the drive hub to a central position
