Mutton Chop-Vehicle WIP (pics added 10th June)

Paul asked if I could knock together a half-track version of his Croydon truck, using the Carden Loyd track system.

I've made a start, two versions are planned, one a troop carrier, and the other an armoured car / support.




Heres what we have so far,its a bit rough and ready, but you can get the general idea.

cheers

Looks like it's tilting backwards a bit... are you planning on maybe trying different rear tracks? Perhaps a bit larger?

Cool idea!

Its all blu-tacked together at the moment, so don't read too much into it.
The track units will be the ones used on the model, as its meant to be thrown together out of whats available, and these Carden Loyd units are perfectly in period.

Fair enough then!
