One of my upcoming projects hopefully will be a Vietnam era V-100, using the Hobby Boss M706. I would like to do the USAF version which does not have the standard turret, just shielding around the roof area. It looks like it wouldn't be to difficult to make out of styrene, but I could use some drawings on good pictures. Does anyone know of any drawings of the USAF version of this vehicle?
Thanks,
MIke

Thanks for the info, it will be helpful. Drawings sure would be great if someone knew where they where.

Just came across this :
New Best Value Models release : M706E2 (#BVM35066)
http://www.phpshopxml.com/azimut.shop/CID/a1d4969d7b78fb69b4b0ef93f784ae2d/function/itemPageDisplay/shopItemCode/BVM35066
Best Value Models kits (made by Azimut Productions) combine pre-existing “donor” kits (like HobbyBoss V-100 kit here), resin and metal parts and photo etch details.

Great, sounds like this is the answer. $53.00 US isn't too bad.
