Henri, the Half Tracks and Scout Cars ara all the prewar type, and not ONE survives! same for the 6 wheeled armored cars.

Rumour has it, the chassisses of the Halftracks were re-used for the first M2's but if this is true or not I don't know.

More reading can be done in Hunnicuts excellent books on them.

Cheers,

Lex

ps, Henri, have had some M53 Cushman brake shoes cast, if you need a set?

Okay Lex, Yes I do, and in a few weeks, the weather is warming up and I will mill that U bar to make it into the lower entire frame. Wish me luck.

After that, the Houdaille and one rear tire, won't be holding my breath.
