Thank you, I couldnt even find what section it was in.

G'day Guys, Im sorry I couldnt find my rprevious posts on my Scimitar. Anyways, I have been doing a bit very slowly. (work comitments) I have got a new engine for it, this is a 250cc ATV quad bike engine. I have also been working on the suspension and swing arms. Enjoy!

Well best of luck mate, I wish I could get a real one, but we dont have them here in Aus so Ill just have to content with making one!

G'day Ricahard, welcome, but I have a feeling we have met before! Hehe

Gee they let any one on here! heheh lol Have you posted up the Tank yet?

G day every one, sorry I havent been on for some time. I recentely had a heart attack and so that has well and truley set me behind. But I will keep working on the Scimitar. I any one can re PM me with Transmission pics That would be great. I would also like to talk to peopel who have real ones as well as restoreded ones cheers for now

There are some plans available on scaledtanks.com site yes, but mostly its fairly simple stuff, Get 1/35 scale model kit and measure and multiply by a factor of 20. The Gearbox and suspension will be shown in plan format on the site, as well.

Chris this is great stuff,Do you have any more? I would love to see more, I can see some of the workings there, but the picture isnt that good to see it. If you can them please do so. If its easier to email then do so damian.sonia@bigpond.com Cheers Digger

Gday Chris, I wasnt planning on replicating the transmssion for the tank, We allready have a transmission designed specificaly for scaled tanks. I was more interested in seeing the workings, more a curiosity thing. Lee, there is already a scaled Shermen on our Site, http://www.scaledtanks.com/news.php http://i131.photobucket.com/albums/p296/muddydigger/Upper_hull_moulded_shell.jpg[/img]http://i131.photobucket.com/albums/p296/muddydigger/default.jpg[/img] This site is dedicated to building Scaled Tanks, so if any one would like to own a tank but dosent have the room, nor the cash to buy a real on have a look, join up and start building. Ps we are not restricted to whats available to buy either, We haev M1s, Shermans, M60s even a WW1 Renult tank. cheers Digger

G'day every one, Well Lee I'm here. My name Is Damian, I live in Brisbane Australia. I am currently in the middle of a 60% scale model build of Scimitar CVRT. The Tank is Based on a Scimitar but may not be 100% accurate, because of size issues and drivability. Its powered by a Fiat 126 engine. I would appreciate any pictures and help you guys who own them can offer. Ill post progress of the Scimitar as I go If it interest you. I am also after exploded views of the transmission if any one has them? Cheers Digger
