Because of my Dodge with rockets and your truck with gun I was looking around for something more like that, and came across this site: www.reddit.com/r/shittytechnicals/ full of pictures of vehicles and wapens that are not supposed to be connected to eachother.. some nice pictures and lots of ideas there. |

Excellent link, thanks very much for that one. I found a couple links to some Syrian and then some other weird and wonderful vehicles previously, posted in Reference Material - other. |

Cool, thanks! Man, it's tough keeping up with all these technicals! I'm still trying to get the Toyota trucks, much less one of these!
That Syrian one looks like its using a T-62 turret too....

Slow day today, redid the wheel master, and also an out rigger jack, moulds made and a sample cast (also gave me a new excuse to play with my new vacuum pump) :-)
