Alpha,
I dunno, now that I've seen that the 251 can be set up for RC function with existing electronics and Asiatam tracks, that will be a project this Winter. After that I want to look into a WWII era diecast Bulldozer or as you noted, a Sherman Dozer. ;o)
regards,
Painless

Painless, go look at my thread for tracks for the 251 and follow the link to a detailed build of one. That person used Panzer 111 plastic tracks with modified drive sprockets I'm thinking of going this route as it will lower the cost as opposed to used the Asiatam Famo tracks.

Good Morning,
I'm not sure about a cause but I sure enjoy the Effect. ;o) Here's another pic with a couple of fellows standing Guard until a Firing Crew shows up.

Another Sketchnite' meant another day out and a visit to the Flea Market. I lucked into another cool find. A 1/18 Dodge Command Car in the Extreme Detail line with all accessories and a couple of figures for 32.00 U.S. Pictures:
P.S. A notch on the Board for the Allies!

Alpha,
Thanks, my friend! I spend time and actually look for new kit for the Diorama sets now. Golden Age of Modeling stuff. Perfect for us big kids, no subliminals needed. ;o)
