Hi this is going to my new project some British armour the Chieftain Mk,5.

I know it's a old kit, I just wanted something nice and simple and will be OOB.

Don’t think I’ve ever seen one of these being built so interesting to see what it’s like.
I’m sure you’ll do it justice :thumb2:

Hi Pete - I recently got one of these and the Haynes. If I ever get around to it the plan is to do it as a dilapidated range target

Bought some worn track links for it - metal links with individual pock marked rubber pads
