Aloha everyone!!!
Just finished up my BRDM-2 and now I'm all motivated So my next challenge is to tackle an Egyptian T-62E mkII. Ive done a Google search and havent come up on much. Does anyone know what all is involved with converting one of Trumpy's kits?
And is there any resin sets that will give me a good start?
Thank you in advance!!!!

Hi Kurt;
I have heard and seen the T-62E, but a Mk;2 I have not heard of. The only kit is Trumpeters T-62 kit, and stay away from the Tamiya kit as it is not accurate. If you are thinking of one of the T-62s used in the 73 Yom Kippur War then the early Trumpeter kit is the only one too use, as for your conversion there are a number of AM companies that make extensive conversions. But depending on the example that you are trying too model, you mite have too do a little bit of scratch building. Check your references and take notes.
GOOD LUCK; MIKE.
