Hi,

Can anyone point me towards MT-LB interior photos or drawings? I have the Skif kit and I'd like to build it up as a swedish vehicle.

I noticed that www.the-swede.com seems to have had interior photos at some point, but they just show up as broken photos now...

Thanks for the help!

Hi,
I've got some sketches of the driver compartment. But I fear this is a Russian version.
I'll check in my refs if I have something concerning the troop compartment.

Hi,

try googling for PBV 401, the swedish designation and you'll find pics like:

Here's a few pics I took of a Finnish MT-LBV. Not sure what the difference would be with the Swedish one, but it should be close.







Cheers,
Jim

Thanks! those are a great start!

Volker, I found that one when I did that search a while ago. There were a few useful pics on google, but not too many, thats why i asked here : ). dose any one have the photos from "The Swede" site saved to their harddrive?

Thanks,
Mike.

Hi Mike,

do you know this one: http://www.plasticwarfare.se/?p=75 ?
Do you have probs accessing "the-swede.com"? It works fine for me. If it doesn't for you, I'll be able do download and send the pics to you...

the 3ed, 8th, 9th, and 11th (the one with the interior pics) pages don't work for me for some reason...

If you could email them to me a 'mikemcgregor(at)rogers(dot)com' I'd really appreciate it!

Thanks,
Mike

Hi Mike,

I'll do so. (the pages work for me) Just give me a little time for that, because the side's construction isn't that simple. In fact the pics can't be downloaded directly (by rightclick, save as ...). So I will take another approach...
