Today I begin with a little modification at the frontfenders. It’s called a field modification because it was not made at the factory. The actual locking mechanism uses a handle at the front edge of the side plate.

Image

Image

Thereafter I had to mount all holders to the side plates; I started at the left side.

Image

Image

Image

Image

Also on the upper hull I‘ve mounted the special holders.

Image

Image

Image

Image

Image

For the crowbar I’ve built a little holder and this was also made of a piece of brass sheet.

Image

Image

The starter crank was also a bit modified.

Till the next time…

Hi Alpha,

it doesn't matter; but I hold myself more to the old adage...
...speech is silver, but silence is golden...
...no offense meant ;)

:haha: :haha: No Offense taken Hotte....Especially since I'm not searching for any precious metals ;) ....With that said....talking to others is a form of sharing the Hobby...no matter the ups or downs we all have...so from my point of view...whether negative of positive...or maybe totally off the wall ...the interaction is what's fun and adds so much more to the Adventure we call RC tankery :D

I continue at the right side with mounting the various holders.

Image

Thereafter follows a little fitting with all mounted tools.

Further at the front headlight; at Torro only glued, but at the original he can be opened. My version will be functional.

So much for today, further goes it with a busywork – weld lines and zimmerit…
