Any Interest in a Huey Main Rotor Replacement ?

[pickelhaube]

Just kicking around the idea.

A few guys wanted it in the past.

How much would you pay for it ?

One blade or both ?

Center hub ?

Hi,
First time post, long time lurker. Couldn't you convert an m48 Veitnam tank to an m60 tank just by changing the turret? I was just thinking about 21st Century Toys Vietnam stuff and thought that would be cool having a different Cold War Tank (made by your professional hands.)

Welcome aboard !

As far as converting the tank turrets I do not know.

But when I started making modifications I could not tell the difference between a M4 Sherman and a M4A1 Sherman.

Now I MAKE the differences

The m60 hull is a slight bit longer and has an angled front rather than a rounded front. I made a template for it and it is possible. Could be done with some epoxy putty and some styrene sheet easily to create a perfect fit.

The turret would be wholly new. An m60 i would gladly pay for.

I don't have a huey to necessitate a rotor replacement.
