| Subject: | Re: M7 Priest, early conversion |  |
| Date: | Sep 15, 2006 |
| From: | Martin Dogger | |
I'm not an expert on Priests, but I'm sort of a knowledgeable person on M4s and M3s ... I've got the Priest also lying in my stash. A built one, but I'll try and make something of it. I have been looking around to getting some refs (thanks Bob!) and then started wondering some more.
Would Academy's M3 Lee, suspension problems apart, be useful as a lower hull donor? The rear hull needs rebuilding, but there are AM sets to cater for that. Suspension is better than Tamiya's as are the tracks. The tranny cover might be off, but I think that would do for the first series of Priests converted. And with a good stash of Sherman bits, one would have some spare parts around.
Any thoughts? |
