Hi Guys
Over the weekend I managed to get the tracks on the Panther and I am supprised that I only needed 85 links per side which is 9 less than stated in the manual and 3 less than Vince mentioned in his original estimate.
After talking to Lee he said he ended up with 84 links.

It runs real sweet on blocks I can't wait to get it on the ground running.

I still have some paint work to do and electronics to fit But it's getting there

Well done Derek

For me, fitting the tracks is the point at which these machines really start to look the business

Excellent Derek! Have fun with it's first run.

I agree with Adrian....they really do start looking mean when the tracks are on. So cool!

Kind regards

Tim

ps Mine has 84 per side as well.

Well done Derek!

I am a little behind...

But I am glad for all news of Panther runners so you guys can give me feedback when the big moment is there for me

Any photos Derek?

Cheers
Kent

Hi Kent
Welcome back

I have photos of some of my detail parts in the gallery and I have taken some pictures of the base coat paint job but I have not had time to post as yet I will take some pictures with the tracks on and post in the next couple of weeks as I will be traveling again tomorrow.

I have to say it looks like a tank should do now.
