Sorry to hear that you have termed Barv, seemed to be going so well. But can understand that maybe somethings needed to carry on the project maybe in short supply(Time,materials,parts). I have to admit its to modern for my tastes,' but', nice going Mate.

Having received more info ---I was justified in "terminating"build ...as my Mk1 eye-ball had lost its SHARPNESS......found I was MILES out in my calculations These and a few others are now being corrected in this new build *If at first you dont succede --bin it and go back to base 1 * --------------Rewind --PART 2--------------------- Take 1 MLRS kit an chop out the rear interior of top hull back ...add a base plate to fit (bad pic) ...cut out the tail section between side walls ...add hydraulics and boxes (may have to enlarge big 1) ...fitted old towers with new "space bar"and corrected -winch cable box(between towers) ...new tower extensions made and fitted ...prepositioning of winch unit (to be re -vamped ) "So far --So good !" More soon aye
