Hi there,

I would like to make a model of the ex-Yugoslav OT M-60P APC. Does any know of a kit of such a vehicle? I am not averse to scratchbuilding one if I can find good drawings but they seem hard to find as well.

Any help would be much appreciated.

I am not aware of any kit of this vehicle and the documentation about it is not that easy to find as well.
I wish you good luck for your project.

thanks H.P.

I have those drawings and they gave me the thought that I can make it from scratch, I was hoping to find some more detailed ones.

Thanks for the photos link.

The M-60 is, i belive, based on the SU-76, so that would make
scratching one a bit easier.

I was thinking that it would be based on something and looking at the two that would make sense. Width is almost exactly the same, and the hull shape looks the same. Looks like they took out the third road wheel which accounts for the length and the uneven spacing of the idlers.

Thanks for the info.

A friend of mine scratch built one used SU76 as starting point. Here are pics on local forum (if this part is one for all -if not, just register there)
Best regards,
Marko
