Paul,

You'll have to check references but I can't recall seeing any RAMs with the British style chevrons (with the three bolt heads and a slightly different chevron profile).

If you have their rubber chevron tracks from the Firefly 1C, that would probably work. Be aware that all of the DML end connectors are of a much less common variety than those on the other companys' tracks. I don't know if that's too big a deal and it's really hard to determine which tanks had these type of end connectors because the photo quality is often not good enough to discerne through the mud and gunk.

If you do use the DML tracks, I recommend assembling them with white glue (Elmer's glue). That way they can be workable enough to paint and weather separately. Same goes for the RHPS tracks which I still recommend.

Jim
