Do you have any photos of your Grandad's real tank ED? It would be really something to see the real deal and your tribute ;)

Now THAT'S what I'm talkin' about. I think it looks great, but what I think won't get ya a cup of coffee. It's what YOU think that counts. I keep trying to tell guys that, the only thing that matters is if you're happy with it! It's a hobby! Have fun with it!

Great job, Cappy.

Different main gun caliber. At first many M50's still used the radial engine they had in them but they proved to be underpowered under hard use and eventually all remaining ones were converted to the later diesel engine.
