Has anyone put together the Italeri/Testers Steyr RSO/1 battle tractor? How was it? Would you buy or build it again? Does anyone else make the vehicle?
Thanks in advance......Otto

I built the Italeri RSO tractor. Not sure if it's the /1. There are pics of it on my website.
I liked the kit. First problem: a big old hunk of sprue growing out of the top of the cab.
Second: The tracks....I soaked them in warm water, tied them down to the road wheels with clear fishing line, and weathered them with pastals.
Got 2nd place for armor in the only contest I've ever entered. Yes, I plan to build another.
