Like this?

Very "on trend" about now. Mk5 please. Then I could do a one sixth self portrait. Would need an extra smoker to replicate the coolant burning through the cylinder liners of the early L60 packs......

Judging by the enthusiasm for the Takom model on the plastic Forums, Chieftain certainly has a following.

That's four sold in half an hour.

Well said Chris but duck - there will be incoming from the "Forget Armortek Makes Ordnance" team.

I think we might be hijacking this thread, Ian .... and my vote is for a CMP FGT Cab 13 rather than a Morris - that way I could convert it to an Aust No.9 FGT.

Hmm, having driven a Chieftain it would be nice, but I'm with Yves, a Panther A would be for me 8)

Did I hear someone say "FAMO?" :shock:

Chieftain for sure - yes please.

I'm no expert but aren't the wheels and suspension bogies more or less the same as on the Cent? Half the design work done Mark :D

Hi Michael,

Sorry if you think that I might have hijacked the Armortek Chieftain thread.
And yes your quite right Chris……Non Chieftain lovers start our own thread……which I did.

See under Kompact Kits, for those who want something to pull their 25pdr and limber kits around!

Cheers
Ian

PS: And just for the record I like big Chieftain tanks too!…..but like the Kompact kits for value and in my budget range…...
