Salut friends,
I found Hellers AMX-30 with Phebus Creations Brennus update set in my stash. Now I wonder what are the differences between the early AMX-30 and the AMX-30 B2? New tracks? So could the Brennus kit be modified for the Meng AMX-30 kit?

Hi Hans,
Yes in deed,PM pics are really good.
With the new AMX30B by Meng,less work would be needed for doing a B2 Brennus,the Heller AMX that I used was really horrible,a 70's standard model,however I had no choice since it was the only game in town at that time.
Good luck,
Bill

If I were you I would wait for some new B2 kit as the engine deck and the rear plate are really different on a B2.

Brennus is not very high on my to-build list.
