Nice one Ian , i remember doing this one as a kid , if i recall its bloody tiny ! You could fit it in a matchbox !( remember them ?! !)

 

[SimonT]

I once did a total rebuild on one of these - thinned all panels and fitted a full interior
Not sure I could manage that these days

I’ve got a number of Plastic Soldier Company 1:72 ones, and they are very tiny. This being 1:76 should be even smaller

Nice - it looks like the wheels and tracks are moulded together. Quick build then.

 

[papa 695]

Made a start on this one, plenty of filling and sanding for me to do.
