You be right there Boots  . Now gotta check the ref pics again, as the early Merks had different turret arrangements compared to those that came after 1982.

Wouts, Boots many thanks Sires  . Well after lounging around the garden, drinking beer having a BBQ and getting a sun tan today  , I thought I'd better do a lickle bit more on the Merk  . I've replaced the commanders MG mount and also got the first side of tracks on  . The tracks I picked from evilshop a while back, they are single link and should be workable. (Wolfpack, DEFModel, Desert Eagle cooperation) But the connecting pins are just too fragile for workable so I glued them instead  . Detail on them is darned fine though, much better than the vinyl kit ones  .    More tomoz dudes
