Does the Sheridan have the same running gear as the M-113 ?
Kirk Douglas : Mine hit the ground first
John Wayne : Mine was taller

I compared side by side photos. Visually they don't appear to be the same running gears. Also the drive wheels look much larger on the M113.

I got this 1/35 Sheridan from the 82nd Airborne custom built for me several years ago.

Very cool! I have the 1:35 Academy and the Jaguar kits that have yet to be built. I've been wanting to see a 1:18 Sheridan for a long time. More than anything, it just symbolizes the 11th 'CAV's assault into Cambodia.
