| Subject: | Re: M32 |  |
| Date: | Jun 6, 2003 |
| From: | Jack Crabb | |
I have read about Italeri's M32 hull being incorrect before, but cant
recognize the error. A review Hunnicut seems to indicate that the M32B1 was
built on the mid production (1943) cast hull. Also, I have the seen the M32
static display at the Patton Museum which is on a cast hull (albeit with the
horizontal volute suspension). What am I mising?
