Built a lid to show what I meant and took some pics. You already are know the right way the lid goes on so the pic is not really needed by you.
I'll post it anyway in case anyone else is doing an opening lid for the US M2A1 50 cal. ammo can. :)

This is the build that inspired my venture into RC Tanks!

Thanks! Lots yet to do, but the turret has been the trickiest part (I hope).

its a shame photobucket is now money hungry and disabled most of photos in this topic.

Would love to see the works from the beginning!

Awesome build on this Abrams Uncarina.

Question for you, where did you get the cupola part and the machine gun mount? Been looking every where for it! >:<
