That is pretty cool man, what a lot of work. Those bogies blow me away because I know at that time you had to completely scratch them. The track makes me laugh, it looks like you conjoined the two metal pads into a make shift older style track. Good work for the day.
i have an ez8 that someone built on one of those back then, the t23 was built around the stock turret. I look at it more as a piece of folk art than an rc model and keep it in a display case since its so nice looking.
i know what you mean about all the models, i have 11 right now in various stages including the halftrack and the m32 project. One sherman is sold still awaiting pickup, oh and I have a panzer3 lurking in the darkness of my garage too.
Great model!
