Tiran 4

[mrt]

Hi Guy`s, while working on this today i just had a thought of mounting the turret onto the hull of the Model 51 i have done, now my dilema is do i carry on and build a whole new hull etc[as the Tiran 4 wont differ much really to this] or just simply juggle a few things around to get the Israeli features?..

Great work .. but make sure you remove the 2 front fenders.. the Tiran uses a smooth version, sometimes field made.. you will find details in my new book..

cheers and your SIGNED book is in the mail..

:) Thanks both!!, here is a pic i found on Corbis that i have been following. It has the original front fenders fitted!.. Albeit mine is minus the mine plow attachments at the front, but early Model 51`s didnt have this feature..Moustaffa, i dont think i have ordered the book yet?.. Would like one though and will order one in due course..
