After the M3A4 Lee ‘Goldbricker’, it seemed obvious to streamline the existing data and turn it into an M33 Prime Mover... at least that was the idea.
If it weren't for the fact that the Prime Mover is based on the Lee M3 – meaning it has a different chassis and rear end, and the body is different too.
The model...
The upper hull had to become Lee M3, and in the end I could only use the front part of the upper hull.

Now for my solution:
I would like to reuse as many parts of the bogie as possible.
