I have the Tamiya Sgt York kit and have a question. Last night I started trolling for pictures of the beast and the kit. I found one that has me baffled. The rear of the chassis is modified in a major way. The grill doors are blocked off with large, flat steel doors and above this there is a large louver assembly... is this how it should be or one of the experimental ones? I do not see any such thing on the kit or on other photos I have of the Sgt York. I will email the picture to anyone who may know of this.. Sabot??

Yes, the back end was heavily modified. I have more pictures that I will send to you. I just figured out how to resize the photos so the files are not so big. I'll finish sending you the pictures tonight.
