Hello Eddy
Thanks for the interest my thread.
You certainly have a huge task ahead of you.
Whilst I have never been involved in restoring tanks, I am retired from the heavy crawler crane industry & have in the past been involved in some significant undercarriage & slew ring restoration/repair.
Heavy,dirty,tiring work,but worth it when you put the track belts back on & watch it roll out of the workshop so I have an insight to the work you will have to do.
I wish you the best of luck,& hope you realise your dream.
Good luck
Jim (lenseye)
