ARV and engineering stuff are a plenty. You must just ask and you shall recieve. What are you looking for.

But sign me up. I have 3 useless Revell Leopards that are screaming for a rebuild. The PE for some parts are on the way but the side skirt hinges have to be rebuild and PE'd, as well as the a major part of the turret and alot of other minor details. As such it won't be a true scratch build as as it is a major modify of an existing kit.

P.S. blokes Tappies and the gang have a great source for photo etching so if you have the design they can have it done fairly cheaply. (I sell time on Solid Works so you blokes don't have to worry about the models and drawings)

Ok I was thinking more on the lines of the Spinnekop mine detecting vehicle. Akin to the Rhoddy Pookie but only in function not in looks. Should be easy to build. Flat planes and tubing. I will bundle some of it up and send it on.
