Dose anyone have access to photos of the M-983 Heavy Tractor? I have searched all over the net and I can't find any photos of this truck.

You mean this one?!

Greetz, Jurgen
edit Holy ships, did you buy this one Dave?

Don't know if this is for just the tires or the complete kit.

No I didn't know there was a kit out there. I and doing a kit bash/conversion/scratch build of one using the Italeri Kit. I will have to check out a source for the kit though. Thanks for the photos guys.

Hi Dave,
I have some good pics from this HEMTT.
I post them on my webshots page (in a private album), with this you can make something good.
You can also download the electronic TM on Logsa site
Cheers

NO I didn't buy it, just ran across it and thought it looked like a pretty neat looking vehicle. That's why I don't know if it's a kit of the tractor, or just the wheel.
But it was one of the photos in the link posted by Jurgen.

That's just the wheels...... Nimix does one in 1/35 i think.......

Finaly I' ve post my pics in apublic album on my page.

Detail pics from :

- M983 seen at Eurosatory (France) june 2004
- M983 from a Patrioot Battery seen inEttelbruck (Luxembourg) july 1993.

Enjoy

NImix makes a 1/35 kit, it is very nice but a littel heavy handed in places. I bought mine about 6 years ago. It can be found at R & J products and Red Lancers.

There is also a set of photos out onthe net, I cannot place them right now, that shows a Nimix kit and a Italeri kit being bashed together to build a better M983. Look for it listed as a M988.

Here is some help for the real deal:

Howdy fellas,

Oh uh!......what is animal up to now!?!.......

Some great pics there guys. And while we're on the subject, I don't suppose anybody has any sites/pics of the HEMMT Model 48 with fully articulated chassis??

Oops!......I probably shouldn't have mentioned that vehicle while animal is listening, he'll build one up in a couple of days!

Tread.

For the MK48 trucks take a look here :
