I'm going to buy a M2A1 half track and thought
1. Does it come with a engine
2. can I detail it
3. wat do I need to do this
4. Pics
I hope u can answer this


Matt

1. Yes, a very nice one at that.

2. Even the best kits can always use a little more detail, so yes again.

3. The engine isn't visible much once finished, but if you want to display it, the only real addition need be the spark plug wires. You can use telephone wire and leave on part of the insulation for the rubber boots. It's a flathead six so it's pretty straightforward.

4. Pics abound online if you do a search, but I don't recall a site off the top of my head.

Thanks now I'm thinking of Building a engine from scratch to display it agian what materials will I need

Here, try this site: http://www.halftracks.com/index.cfm .

It is actually an M4A1 halftrack with an 81mm mortar but it is restored and immaculate. It should have a couple of engine shots on the page.
