Default Don's Heng Long Upgrade (So Far)

Hey Folks,

Thought you might enjoy checking out my TIGER 1 Project. It is far from perfect and far from complete. So anyone who is doing or has done a HENG LONG conversion from Early to late model. Here is where I goofed it up.

1. The circular cover over the engine should have been smoothed over.
2. Wrong Engine Grates
3. Wrong Loader's Hatch
4. No circular Turret Ring Guard
5. Turret Roof should be Thicker (40 mm)
6. Should have a late Muzzle Brake
7. Wrong Track Repair cable and Holders
8. Wire Cutters are in the wrong place
9. Headlight Needs to be lower
10. Cuppola to high
11 Wrong Tow Cable hold downs
12. Turret Bin should have the braces sanded off
13. S Mine Bracket plates should have been sanded off

Still alot to do. But I am learning alot as I go, and most of all this is fun!! If you guys spot anything else please let me know.
