For the RAF one I could spare a set of turret side boxes that are photo etch metal.

If you are missing A2 then you are very close to this rear hull of a RAF. It has the later version which is the mounting points for the drawbar pintle which isn't always mounted.

Plus adding a tube for the antenna seen here:

That is all that would have to be done since RAF vehicles didn't have a lot of extra stowage.



Hi Paul,
your offer to spare photoetched boxes seems interesting. Please, let me know with PM how much I should owe to you for the pieces and the mailing.
About the rear plate of the tank in museum: do you know hat are the small objects on a thin support, reached by electric cables? The kit has only one of them.

Best regards
Massimo

Massimo,

Those are lights that illuminate the convoy panel with white and black stripes and the registration number.
