Anybody recommend good reference material for the IDF M113 vechiles.

The Blue Steel book on SLA M113s is pretty good. Big color shots but not much text. In my experience no 2 were the same; lots of variation. I also have the book Israeli armor the first 50 years. It's great but not slot of pix of them.it has more info in text.

Chris.

I am sure if u need pix someone will hook you up.

Desert Eagle Publishing has two books on the Zelda. No 9 and No18.

I've noted theses two paperbacks. Very expensive at £36-£39 but I'm assuming you get what you pay for.

Thanks Chris I know there are loads of different configurations of the M113 and no two seem to be the same. I've got plenty of pictures of them but would like some close ups shots. I've a couple of accessory kits I'm hoping to use. One is the Verlinden Hi-hab crane conversation. It has loads of storage boxes which I can use. I'm interested in building one due to the fact that they can't be described as wrong.

The shop trucks and engineering variants are my favs too. The desert eagle stuff is top notch but expensive... You are right you get what you pay for.
