Heavens to Murgatroid! It's a Greyhound! You have a dandy conversion on its way within, what, three months of the first production run of the Coolbank Stuarts? Wow!

Catherine is doing a few parts, we are also working on some ideas for these little tanks, which is actually an impressive model for the price point

I already have a (somewhat oversized) M4 HST built off of a butchered Mato Sherman chassis, so I'll leave it for others to have a go at converting the M5.

I had been discussing that very idea, going to be doing some chassis tests this weekend if the chassis will run without the mudguards as we suspect that they keep the tracks in place. time will tell
