Has anyone ever used this PE set for the M151 Mutt? I was digging through my kit boxes and I ran across quite a few of the Mutt kits so I'm going to "gun truck" one up. I picked up the Skybow M2 pedestal mount to give the truck a little "bite".

Sabot, I've given the old Verlinden set a turn or two before. I also used it to make sheet styrene parts. I don't know how to link to a Gallery (yet) - but I have an example of the conversion here in the Vietnam section of the Gallery...

OK Gunnie, I also scored the Verlinden Ford Mutt M151 A1&A2 Conversion & Detail set for $15. I think bewteen the armor plating set and this one, I should be able to do a nice light weight gun truck.

Oh Yeah that is a great combination to work with - that's what I have squirreled away to do mine...
