Building a kit from your stash is like cutting a head off a Hydra, two more take it's place.

M60_tanker - welcome to the forums! I've got to tell you, I'm counting on your help - I'm just building an M728 CEV - here's the link to my build: http://cs.finescale.com/fsm/modeling_subjects/f/3/t/165990.aspx - and I would appreciate your comments to make it as good as I can. What is your subject - what do you build? Thanks in advance and have a nice day

I have been looking at your build. I never served on a M728, but got a chance to see one fire on Range 79 in graf in 1976. Looked like a 55 gallon trash can going down range and you could feel the concussion from 1000 meters away! Awsome sight. It looks like you and my son are doing very well on both projects. By the way, my son is Michael Brindos and he is building the AFV Club M60A1 for me. I don't do models anymore, my eyes are not up to it. I just order the parts.

Hello Ray!

Thanks a lot and please keep on looking - I'm sure you can spot things that would just be plain wrong on an US Army tank. I'm looking forward to seeing you on the forums, have a nice day

Welcome to the forums Ray!Great to have another veteran on our hands here. I didn't work on 'em but I've seen a slew of them being in field artillery for 7 years. Glad you're here.
