As I am planning an early IDF one i will be using the dml turret with def mantlet and urdan cupola on a modified afv club hull, spares from both kits used in a scratchbuilt project so little lost, will use afv track of course

Take in mind that IDF Magach 6 vehicles (m60 slick) got the Urdan cupola after the Yom Kippur War. If you want to do a vehicle used at the War of Attrition or the Yom Kippur War you can use the M19 cupola.

I used a Takom hull, Esci wheels, Dragon DS tracks and a Dragon turret, scavenged from a robbed kit. The mods to the hull were easy enough, and it looks the part. Before and after paint:

The second pic is not quite finished, stuff like the antenna and outer return rollers not yet on, but that's the most recent pic I appear to have.
