Is it possible to convert walker bulldog to chaffee?</p>

You'd have to scratch make the enitre tank. Road wheels and sprockets you could get by with and possibly use the M-41 turret as a base for reconfiguring it, but track & entire chassis are totally different and the back deck is a totally different animal. Many of us have pondered this possibility. Guess we just wait 'til someone decides to make one. Many wishes are now being fulfilled with the new KV and Shermans, so maybe.,,,just maybe..

All it takes is a little Lexan, some metal....... and a lot of skill!

Ron's Chaffee is really small at a true 1/16 scale. The Bulldog is 1/15th I believe so your scale would be close to 1/13 or bigger if you kept the lower hull stock. Look at the Chaffee in relation to the Sherman....

Really nice job....you forgot to mention also...lots of time. The M-24 was a neat little tank and when it appeared in ETO in late 44, it was the most heavilly armed light tank in the world...BUT in Korea they were next to worthless. Any T-34's in the area, they had to pretty much hide them. Guys I have met who crewed them liked them a lot, and other than the impotent 75mm , a reliable tank. Never could figure why it was designed with the TC and gunner in the left, like German panzers. Is this going to be set up with IR?

The original M-24 they built was (see photo), and Ron has battled all the other tanks he has built.

They look really nice. With all the scratch building out there, anyone have an spare Pershing travel lock? I just took my M-26A1 back to standard issue Pershing.
