    Well Bro, besides building up your stash, I would go for the Centaur...Being a Tamiya kit, you could add lots of love to it Paul. Something right up your alley!!!

          I tend to favour the Centaur as well. Main construction should be straightforward but, as Allen said, lots of Scottie enhancement opportunities.

                Predictable I know,but I'd go for the Centaur too...
                Mainly because the other two have been done recently,(the M3A1 by me in fact!!:tears-of-joy,

                    I was going to suggest that too The M3A1 scout car kit is … well, ancient. Sure, you can build it into a nice replica, but you probably really would want to replace most of its armoured body with thin plastic card. At which point buying and detailing the Tamiya one is probably a lot simpler

                          Paul,
                          I made this last century, and I seem to remember problems with the decals around the top of the turret - I think you had to add them mid build sequence, and not reading instructions properly caused grief ( it was a long time ago! ) Nice model, typically Tamiya
