Looks good Pzrwest, is it going to be static or is he planning to r/c it too?

Out of interest, how much are you charging for it?

For this one it is a swap I'm getting a 1/6th scale 21C jeep with all the correction mods. We have thought of selling carrier bodies say for around 250US plus shipping. It would be up to the buyer to find track and make the running gear. As my other carrier stands now it would sell for 650US. I've only seen one other carrier for sale and it is at that price and less detail than mine

Update:
Well the carrie basic hull is almost finished for my part. Here I have constructed the basic engine cover box. Just some odd seams to fill in the lower hull and it's ready to ship. Styrene is so much nicer to work with than wood
