AWESOME Frenchy ! I alway check what ever you post because you alway seem to post some of the most coolest & obscure pictures ever. What a great archive of photos you must have only to be topped by your memory of where these pics are !
Thanks for all your posts and keep them coming !

Either the Philippine Army or Marine Corps did something similar with an M35 truck and the twin .50 caliber MG turret from a PBR Mk II.

Thanks Tom ! You're welcome. But I must confess I've just stumbled across these two pics while looking for some online Soviet ISU-122 pics....Serendipity at its best

That M35/twin40 is an awesome guntruck! Bit pricey to build but I want one - AFV Club M35 and the new Duster comes to £70 at UK prices, not far short of that if you use the old Tamiya M42 as a donor

Oh well, Christmas isn't that far away.......
