Here’s some pics that I found that should have been in this thread sorry for my mistake. I’ll have some updates soon. This was my first build post here on the Forum back in 2018

I was hoping to do one of these in 1-87......so far no luck locating a 3 ton Bilstein at a reasonable price. Carry on Lee, should be an enjoyable build. Rick H.

[Lee Drennen]

Rick. Thanks hope to get a little done tonight. Some of that 1/87 is priced as much as the 1/35 scale hope you find one cheap like to see you build one of these in 1/87. Thanks for stopping by.

Here’s some updates. I fixed the front Axle where it would be level those pics are from the old thread. This morning I weathered the tracks going to let these dry and put the final touch on them.
