Japanese Type95 Tank project
Part 1

By: Tank Mechanic


Here's some shots of my latest project, a Type 95 Ha-Go light tank. The first pic shown is the "parts donor", a Hasbro tank that I am cannibalizing. Pic 2 is the plans with the frame rails. Pic 3 is other half of plans.Pics 4,5 & 6 are frame with hull bottom and sides attached. Pics 7,8 & 9 are to show the details on bottom of hull. I am literally building it from the bottom up.Sides are next, then tracks, top and finally turret. Pic 10 is to show inside color. I think it is correct, this has been a tough project to research. Final pic shows track rollers in progress. More to come later.......




































Awesome looking so far old friend. Now this is one of those projects that I can't wait to see finished. I was kind of hoping 21st would get around to this one eventually. Keep up the great work Tank Mechanic. Special thanks for sending these "in progress" photos in and sharing them with us. Totally inspiring! - GL
