Hello everyone
I'm looking for pictures of the engine lifting spreader bar that was used to lift the engine and transmission out of the LVTP5A1 during the Vietnam war by the LVTP5-R1A1 retriever units. I'm in the process of scratch building this version of the LVTP5 and would like to put it on the top deck.
I have Goggle searched with zero results. I'm also looking for detailed pictures of the top deck and crane of this vehicle.
Thank very much for any help.

Hi Ralph

I think you are talking about this :

...aren't you ?
If you can wait a few hours, I have some 1/144 scale drawings for this variant at home (I'm at work now...) . Just PM me your e-mail adress and I send them to you if you are interested
