The first thing I did was dump was the ax and shovel that come with the
vehicle. They are way too small. I covered up the place where they are
supposed to be attached with a bed roll. The next thing to go was the
tow cable. I wrapped some chain around the shackles in front, and it
looks a lot better. Then I added a 30 caliber to gain a little height. I
had wanted to do a pintle mount on the back of the turret, that mount be
standard on the first M8's, but there just isn't enough room. The 30
caliber is a combination of the 21st air cooled and water cooled guns. I
also replaced the 30 caliber barrel next to the main gun, the one that
came with it was way too small. The whole thing then got a paint job and
bedrolls, packs, crates, etc. were added.
I think on my second one I am going to see if I can remove the mud
skirts and added a ring mounted 50 caliber. I would like the two of them
to be different. -- Pointman
