The Academy kit with the AFV club suspension would be your best bet. Formations sell a resin lower hull that would drop fit the AFV suspension or you can do it yourself on the plastic lower hull. The sandshields stick out too far and should be flush with the hull, either scratch build your own or thin down the kit ones. The hex turret has different size vision slots, they all need to be the same size, a friend of mine purchased a 2nd kit just for the vision slots! The rear stowage box should over hang the hull. I've seen the kit built nice but ootb it looks funny. Right now it is the best game in town to start with.
