Go for it,
I'm building the Bronco Hotchkiss and this is a great kit, fit's well, is finely detailed, has some (small) molding problems, shifted wheel halves, short shot on the bogies (only on my first production run kit) and the plastic is a slight bit, soft and flexible (only a very slight bit) and thus is quite tedious.
But don't think these are bad flows, just minor naggles, it is a great kit. I have checked many photos and imho the shape is very accurate, much more so then on the other options (trumpeter, Heller). Steve Zaloga has stated that it is too small, this might be the case (I don't know) but the look is certainly captured. And it is a 100% fact that there were differences, due to the different manufacturers off the real vehicle, for example on the rear plate, the attachment for the trench slide is 100% correct, seen it on pics off the real vehicle, but there also is another option as depicted by Heller. But too state that Bronco is wrong here is simply incorrect.
A quality product that oozes it, the only "error" i have seen is taht the front section to the main hull "line" is different then on the real vehicle, I guess I will not correct this, but you could fill it and rescribe.
