I'm currently building an Iraqi T62 and need a good photo or two of an engine compartment. I can't seem to find very much out there. Any help would be appreciated!

No photo, but what about some drawings ? :





Here's another drawing of the T-62 engine bay that shows the radiator missing in the two other drawings :

If you don't mind going for a book,
WWp No7 T55/54 has a lot detailed info on diffrent marks and photos on engines and the engine bay

Hope this helps

thanks, that explains where the smaller radiator goes in the verlinden drop-in engine compartment. How about the bigger one?

Hi;

You could also use the Verlendan T-62 Detail set as it Gives you just about every thing that you would need.
Altho its based on the T-62, its the same engine.

CHEERS; MIKE.
