Does anyone have a copy of the instructions for this interior set?

Really appreciate the assistance

Hi Joe,

Did you try emailing MR directly and requesting the instructions?

[email protected]

Otherwise if nobody else can help I can dig through my stash and try and find my set, but it might take some time, too many boxes...

Cheers,

Christophe

Joe,
I was able to download a PDF of MR's M1064A3 conversion from their site. The PDF was clearer than the crappy photocopied instruction that came with the conversion.

Sadly they don't have that option for the M88A1 set (no PDF file).

Cheers,

Christophe

I emailed them, and they directed me to their website, which has a pdf of 4 pages from the instructions. What it doesn't have is the pages of drawings and parts breakdown listed in those four pages.

I emailed them back two days ago, and haven't heard back.

Hoping someone here will have those pages.

Joe, I've got a set as well if needed.

Just curious about your "strategy" for the build. I found the set "OK" but did a lot of additional scratch building on my own. And then when I finished, while I made all the hatches operational so you can sort of see inside, I've buttoned the top and bottom together. Lots of "stuff" but other than pictures nobody will ever see it again .

Considering doing an M88, original flavor. The kit says it can't be used to do this, but with a little research...so far the biggest issues appear to be the air cleaners being vertical vs horizontal,and slightly different in constructioon, and some changes to the rear wall arrangement.

There's other stuff as well, but I don't have my list at hand.
