Hi Jeff, HL have made it simple with this one, just undo the 6 visible screws on the lower hull, and off she comes! No need to remove tracks etc. :thumbup:

Jeff, Once you remove the 6 screws the hull lift off, be aware of the antennae wire connector, remove the 5 screws to begin the turret disassembly. I'm painting this tank so I have it completely disassembled now.These are older pictures of the basic disassembly.If you require more detailed photos of the disassembly of the lower end,tracks,wheels,gearbox,electronics let me know.
