My '72 Sherman

Post by Rocketman »

Ok, have to be another one of those " what if models" Think landing in Japan......Just couldnt bear another bog standard Sherman in the world!  Anyway just a few quickie pics , better photo shoot " on the beach " planned for later this year.( and yes before you all start telling me the tracks are wrong, i know but they are the old metal types and as rare as hens teeth so im willing to stick with them, thats the way they came and im not pulling them all apart now!)

Keith, I notice that you have at least 1 link the correct way, you could always strip the tracks and start again should stop you getting bored for a few minutes 
They shall not grow old as we who are left grow old.
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.

WE WILL REMEMBER THEM
