Paul,
Merry Christmas! I always worry when I order a pair of anything that I will only be getting one set. I see that my worries are grounded in reality. I think that I heard you all the way over here in Colorado when you opened the shipping packet. The lights are beautiful and worth the wait, tho'. Since the Challenger is the seminal British tank, I know that any amount of extra effort is Ok to you fellows. Following along.
Happy Holidays!

I have been really exited for you to get this build back on the go dude! I think those ratchet straps could be the most beautiful I have ever seen! Where you get them from mate?

Paul,
Good morning. As far as the missing lenses goes, will a set of Tamiya lens do as replacements if AFV cannot locate the missing piece? The working straps are a novel idea. I remembered that I had a Challenger 2 in 1/32 diecast and took a couple of photos to show the buckle size against the drums. I hope that is useful, my friend. You have really put time and effort into this tank.
regards,
Painless

Rachet looks good Paul. A bit on the large size, can you put a side by side pictures with the stock for size comparison?

Looking good Paul.

Straps and buckles look fine. Maybe a tad big but won't notice too much.

Amazing thread Scalawag can't wait to get my own Chally 2 now ..

I agree Paul, the molded to the drum ones look to small compared the the ref picture of the real ones.
