I am in the middel of the Humvee project and then I will get back on the INDY SIDECAR.

I am also gearing up to do a big project but will do another short kit .

This list is the short kits that I WILL DO. But over time.

1. Firefly
Barrel, mantlet , Britsh style fire ext.,cleaning rods bow plate cover,radio box and antenna cage . I will also make a M-4 rear deck for you guys who have the FOV Sherman.

2. Sherman mine roller.
The one with the huge rollers. All you will need is a Sherman to put it on.

3. M-3 Tank Destroyer.
I will make the gun and all of its parts to fit on the Half track.

There does not seem to be a lot of interest in any of these looking at the responses.

At one time the Firefly was up there , oh well.

I have been comissioned to do the M-3 TD. So that may be the next one.

I did a post a year or so ago on doing a Abrams mine plow and that went by the wayside due to lack of interest as well. I thought that would get a good resonse but it was not to be.

I long for the old days when I would build these things for self enjoyment. Those days are long gone. Now I have to build things that OTHER PEOPLE WANT.

Not to blow my own horn but my stuff is the ONLY ARMOR PIECES TO COME OUT IN ABOUT A YEAR THAT HAS BEEN OFFERED TO THE MASSES.

1N 1/18 SCALE !!!!! 1/16 scale is not 1/18 scale.

I vote for the M3 TD (also known as the T19) as long as it's the 105MM gun and the accompanying ammo storage racks.

When do you want the money?

I love the idea of the M3 Kit.
I'd be up for one of these.

Still seems to be even money. I thought that one would be a stand out.

That's why I said something German.....

Still like the Firefly idea.
