I'll preface this by pointing out that I am NOT using the Haya parts that have recently come out. I started the CAD work on this a while ago with several potential variants in mind, all of which would be easier to do from scratch with my own CAD models rather than try to modify Haya's parts.

So, Step 1: Take a perfectly good Haya Centurion and attack it with a Dremel... Step 2: Print out a new engine deck. For those who care, I used ABS for the base, and resin for the grills and top cover. Step 3: Glue in place and wait for it to set:

Wow! Can't wait to see this to completion.

Great start. Have you decided which version of the Sho't Kal to create (Alef, Beth, Gimel, Dalet) ?

The AFV club kit I have as a reference claims to be 1973 vintage, which would make it an Alef, but I might do something later if I take leave of my senses and attempt all of the blazer add ons...

Leaving it as a 1973 model would allow me to pair it up with my M51, as and when that gets finished, so there is that.

Looking forward to seeing more progress on this Martin!

Yeah about that...

I bought a finished Gimel (or Dalet?) Tong De conversion off of our friend johnbr, and this one took a back seat as a result - to be honest all of my IDF projects got parked after the last couple of years, including the refurb of my armoured D9
I will have the V2 fuel convoy and a few other bits and pieces at Blackpool this year: Just finished up assembling a 14t semi trailer to finally give my Autocar U-7144T something to tow, and hope to get one or two other wildcards done as well.

Also to add - the ABS parts have warped horribly! And now that I can print ASA with the K1 Max, I will likely be starting all of those builds again
