M113 ACAV

[xhelfix]

Hi,

this is my latest Tank i build. So this is more an "after building report". At this time it´s finished.

Im ran often out of time, beside Familiy and job.
But i need for my Vietnam -flash an M113 AVAV.

So i ask a friend if he can build it as mutch as possibel and i just make the detais and the colour and finish. I do it the same way some years ago with an US M113with MERDC colour.
He developt the ploy kit´s (based on P3 track) and built it, i organized the verlinden ACAV kit.

So i get it:

Than i ad screws....
