Opted for the T-34 from my local shop. Got a metal barrel and Eureka towing cables. This is going to be my T-34 proper. Tank riders to follow. ![](https://i.ibb.co/JKK6FNr/E7-D661-D8-C1-D0-4-D50-B527-49-CD4-B072653.jpg)

Thanks Ian. Put the Eureka tow cables in a prominent position. Didn’t even bother with the plastic ones on the last kit. These, though, should look really good. ![](https://i.ibb.co/v3RvfTL/EB4-CA949-693-C-4222-A1-C1-4860-F67950-E0.jpg)

Thanks. Problem is the primer didn’t stick to the wire very well. Should be enough on it to cope, I hope.
