Been slowly putting this together over last couple of weeks.

So this is the M8A1 Cargo Tractor


So since I had a spare bulldog chassis I thought I use that, I know it has 1 less road wheels than the proper thing but hey we ignore that

So here's some pictures of the build as it's coming along.





















With some paint











Still the bull dozer front to make, and some other details to add.

there is some great stuff coming out now guys nice one ian

Cheers Dave.

This is my first kind of scratch build, so breaking myself into builds gently. Got a KV-85 next hence the bits extra bits I bought from you.

Ian.

ok that will be good to see
must get back to my tanks as well sooooo much to do so little time

Yeah I know the deadly enemy of time to do stuff. I've the KV85 next, then SU100, then onto a T72 and a IS-3. The last two requiring a lot of new parts to be made.

Plus rushing a bit on this knowing my leopard is coming.

Ian.

yer the postman will pick it Tuesday from me and you should Thursday mate will look to see what you have done to it when I get back from hols

I like that, a lot, the Bulldog lowers are great as they make very dependable lower hulls.

Been a quiet week on this project

So started making some headlights, from 3mm flat face LED, plastic tube and milliput



Still to file to finish shape and paint.

Then onto the bulldozer bit, started with the arms





And that's as far as I got.

Ian.

I be using it to pull broken down tanks off the battlefield

shovel looks familiar ahem................... old shovel ?
