Any info on the cargo version of the Pershing

Post by Rocketman »

Hi guys

Long way down the road but I've seen a cargo variant of the Pershing somewhere and I'm damned if I can find it now, anyone got any info?

I did a m8a1 cargo tractor based on the bulldog chassis although the Pershing would of been a closer match.

Oo that looks like fun. Maybe better on a Bulldog chassis. Dozer blade that can be raised or lowered by the now redundant turret controls! Metal tracks, sprockets and low ratio gearboxes should keep you happy in a sand pit for hours :)

If you want 6 road wheels it has to be the Pershing.

There are a load of Bulldog chassis variants, or pretty close.
