The title says it all. I picked up a Jaguar M551A1 Sheridan "Operation Desert Storm" (Kit number 63901)on the cheap, but the only hitch is that the instructions are missing. While I have the MMIR #29 issue that covers the Vietnam version, I am unsure about the locations of some of the suspension parts, the armor around the commander's cupola, and how the search light is mounted. If someone has a set of instructions and can scan them in to send me, I would appreciate it.

TIA,

Hi James,

I have a set of the instructions and will scan them asap, I'll send a note to bring them to work in the morning.

However, the instructions are junk and found I had to look at a lot of reference pics to figure out what was going on....especially the suspension.

I'll be in touch,

Pete

You´re a lucky man to have gotten this kit.

Hope these walkarounds helps a bit

Btw, these were also used during the 89 Panama invasion.

Enjoy the build.

Pete,

Thank you. I am not too surprised to hear that the kit's instructions are crappy as that is a common trait with many resin kit manufacturers. Fortunately with today's Internet and on-line builds and reference sites, I think that between the instructions and other sources, build the kit will not be too big of a hassle [Famous last words ].

Anyway, thank you again for your help. And, I will be looking forward to the scans.
