Luca,
Your Panther wheels, sprocket and hull are looking really good. Its going to be a masterpiece I can tell. Keep up the great work.

I threaded a few of the track pins, no all of them yet. It is very handy if you need to take the track off to just remove a nut and washer. You may want to Loctite the nuts as they may loosen themselves over time.

Great work,
Bob

Back again my dears

Just some pics to show my progress. The two rostrum of the rear starter plate come kindly from Steve Norris.

The pics are a bit yellow because I have switched a spotlight but in someone you can see the real color, hope you can enjoy.

Luca,
excellent looking details. It looks like you are taking some painting tips from our current master Simon. Excellent weathering on the wheels.
Best regards,
Bob

Hi Luca.
Your doing a great job on your Panther, I like the way you have put the recessed bolts in the engine deck.

Hi Luca,

Great job on your Panther. Your exhaust look like an early G but you use the original parts from Armortek. Can you explain because I have seen so many exhaust versions I'm confused . Is it original to use the bottom part(Armortek) with home made or third party exhaust pipes and covers. I want to change mine to an early model and if this is original I can easily transform my own exhaust.

No Marcel, the squared bottom provided in the kit is referred to the middle/late "G" version. The rounded bottom was used commonly in the early "G" version. What's really different from a version to another is the bar retainig the exhaust at the top.

What i have choose (to use the parts provided in the kit over all) is the exaust adopted in the transiction between middle-late version where exhaust's pipe was substitute from the "flamelichter".

Now can't be more specific but later i will post a drawing more explicate.

Cheers
