Here we see the AMX-13 with a T-72 turret. Why? Cuz it looks cool, that's why!




It's the Heller AMX13 with a Tamiya T-72 turret and wickedly cool flame job, eh? I did it for a boss I had, I really don't know why to be honest.

Think you mean AMX-30: an AMX-13 with a T-72 turret would be doing a permanent wheelie! ;D

Damned cool anyway -  :thumbsup: I'm sure someone on here proposed something similar, but I can't recall who... :unsure:

Oops. It was almost a decade ago, I guess I forgot what I stole from what. My error!

And that's all the justification you'll ever need! :thumbsup: Cool job!

Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?

Heh, this is great.  Love the wheels and did you chrome the barrel?

Bare metal foiled the barrel, and Testors Chrome spraypaint on the wheels.
