WHEW!...glad to hear that fynsdad :D ...not a big fan of that tumor... I can understand the need for more storage on the Stuart... but never thought that protrusion was a good solution :haha:

I still have to say... after this... I just might have a go at one :D

Uses it - or loses it.................in some cases size really does matter.

Hey Herman...that Stuart is still in running condition..unless it was something mechanical... someone could gas her up and be on their way... no direct hits...so she must have been able to dodge the gun...
Unlike this poor sod
Image direct hit.. I would surmise .. it was it's size..and lack of speed that contributed to such a hit ;)
