Hi All,
Just an update as to what I've been doing to my Abrams so far striped down oiled and greased up all wheels and axels. Just waiting for the metal wheel set to come out shouldn't be too long!!. Did notice there is NO front wheel adjustment for the tracks??. The Leopard A26 has them so why the Abrams has not I can't understand!!. Also the commander's calpola dose not rotate? again can't see why. Might be able to do this will strip the turret down as see what's to be done if so will post some photos of it. Apart form the two bits I have Found the model is very good. It looks like it's an ABRAMS M1A2 V1. The V2 has a remote commander's MG station and various other turret mods. Will that's about it for now. Brian...
Look an eBay action figures for some of the old 21st century 1/18 scale Iraq war American ground troop figures. The fit very well into the Abrams with a little modification and repainting.
