Default Moose gets a nose job

A resin casting of a 3 piece transmission cover showed up. It is a rough casting, and I had to redo some of the bolt detail, but other then that it was pretty good. A little bit of sanding etc to get it to fit to the Mato hull, but nothing too drastic.

I was looking for Bullwinkle but I guess the tranny cover will do.

I need to get me one of those too for it will complete my Sherman "bucket list" completely. That way I'll have at least 4 or 5 different Shermans ... to some extent.

PM me if you want one. I ordered in more then I need, as I thought a few guys might be interested in them. Shipping them from Europe one at a time is too costly So I ordered in 10 with the idea of selling some of them.
