Finally started working an bobbing a 1/35th scale M35A1 plastic kit the other day. The first picture shows the rear axle and rim. To simulate the flange that the rear rim would bolt to after the hubs were flipped I cut the middle section out on a couple of the spare rims. The second image shows the center piece that I cut out slipped on to the axle. Then I chopped off a quarter of the kit bed and cut an equal amount from the frame. The third picture shows the modification I did to shorten the frame rails in the kit. Picture #4 is the rear suspension. For rear springs I stoled the front suspension from an Italeri 5 ton M925 kit. The last shot shows part of the modified bed in place.
Can't wait to get this finished as the other day UPS brought me my latest order. It's a 1/16th scale kit of a WWII U.S. M16 halftrack (by Trumpeter).![Very Happy :-D :-D](https://www.steelsoldiers.com/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)
