Here's my Magach 7... I'm waiting for the amber colour for the headlights and for the tow hooks in the front of the tank. I hope you like it.
This is Academy's M60A1 with Magach 7 Resin conversion by Legend. The stowage is legend and stock parts that came with the kit.

Hello James--this is good work here. Love the pic of the turret basket and rear end view --- very clear pics that accentuate the detail on the model. Good stuff.
This would make a nice Models on Display for the site if you are interested. If so, please shoot me a pm so we can discuss. Thanks.
Congrats on a fine effort.

Elad, I don't even know if I'm a member of that GB. I did it because I really love the Magach and it's Sci-fi look and the versatility of using an old tank and making it work to today's standards!

Hiya James,
cool topic, and cool build, I really like it. There's two nitpics I'd change if I was you : add a handle to the loader's hatch and you'd better correct the tow pintle, it should not point downwards like the instructions tell you, but be pointing backwards, horizontally ... that'll really make a difference. But as I said : really nice and I really like the topic Patton and IDF ...

there have been a few corrections, thanks though, the hooks are fixed aswell as the lights... the decals no longer have the silvering either...

I like what you've done a lot. I've seenthe legends conversion for this for quite sometime and seeing yours really is really tempting. I've seen profiles of this tank and wondered wht the upper turret looked like. Great job.
