Non scratched parts are tracks, wheels (apart from making them bigger), suspension and drive train. At the moment it runs like a dream. Lets see what its like when the Multifunction gear goes in.

I saw the Tamiya Challenger 2 (Desertised Version) at the IPMS Nats in the UK and new I had to build a bigger RC version, that was two weeks ago, this is were I am today. Wheels wont be a problem after the skirts are on and I have a set of leopard block pattern tracks to go on when its finished.

Suspension system is from a Tamiya leopard A4, I used the swing arms, torsion bars and wheels. The drive engines and gearboxes are from a DMD Sherman. The Chassis is made from 6mm plastic sheet. I've been off today so I made up the front reactive armour part. I will post some more pictures later on tonight.
