Hi fellas, I promised Mike about 6 years ago  , that if he got another GB going I would do another T55 with a difference  . So this is what I am going to try and reproduce for you  . Some people say it's a T55 minus the turret + Brit Bofors, other say it's BTS2 with the finest field modification ever seen . I myself I am too sure which it is, but I shall try and find out as much as I can. There is however only one known picture of this vehicle  :  Here's what I shall be using for my attempt at this different T55 based montser  .  I'll be starting in a week or so, I need to get some headway on the Gunfire Gun-truck first . |

That's not a simple build Paul, with only one photo existing as a reference.

Welcome to all who have decided to spend there evenings with me , instead of there loved ones . Boots, I'm not too worried about the Bronco kit, there's not much that will get used . Mack, glad to have surprised you Sir . Guy, Simple this may not be , but it should be fun . Ian, I shall try not too disappoint you . Carl, there are a few pics of a BTS2 on Pinterest  , but not not with overall view . Jeff, back then I was searching for odd variants of the T55 , amongst others this one showed up  . That was 2012/13, since then nothing else has turned from this baby. Pete, thanks for that Sir . I reckon you'll get to this live in October . Steve, those be true words indeed fella , still I shan't take it too far OTT . |

Okay fellas, being as a couple have started I thought it only right to open the box and start gluing myself . As the front lower hull certainly isn't the norm for a T55 or 54 , I decided to change the kit part accordingly .  More as and when muckers |

Paul,
Very glad to see plastic & glue under way, will enjoy seeing your version, as you may recall at the time we talked about this the only built version you found online belonged to one of my mates.
So will love to see your version of her
Mike
