Im waiting for some parts for the KT so im going to get a start on the Sherman Firefly conversion from a old 1974 1601 kit a lot of difference from the latest Sherman Kit old style single motor gearbox no speaker no dmd units the road wheels run on a plastic pin no bearings there not even brass to correct this you have to buy new suspension parts some you can get some you cant would like to see a bigger bearing and replacement cap kit for this version of a Sherman
hint hint the bearings out for the latest Sherman wont work on this older kit but will still work as is .Upgrades will be Impact gearboxes with Graupner 400 motors  will add Tamiya DMD units and speaker box will also add a HL turret ring system and Tamiya elevation mech with Tamiya recoil for the Firefly conversion if it wont all fit will change elevation to small servo setup and  thanks to Bubbajoexx for making the 17 pounder barrel and recoil mount for me .

Thanks
Jimmy
