KT 007 2019

Post by Keith Brenchley »

Nearly ready for some sort of top coat and weathering. Still a few detail items to sort like fire extinguisher and rear mudguard locks but I think it’s getting there. Going for an early September 44 scheme to fit in with the lack of zimmerit.

Does anyone know where to get some drive hub lock washers from? I’ve looked everywhere that I can but not been able to locate any yet.

Looking good! Just the paint job and weathering then, the kt is a big sod but a great canvas.

Hi Keith,
Your KT is good. Regarding these little hooks around two exhaust fan covers and transmission box panel (See your photo), are they custom-made or Armortek's stock part? How many are they (12?)?

Thanks Phil, yes a few buckets of dark yellow and dark green required!

Thanks Lehr. I made the hooks by melting some white metal into a wooden mould then filed to size. Not perfect but they seem to work. There’s eleven on mine, four on each rear grill and three on the front plate. I notice Jan 45 tanks had three on each of the rear grills.

Regards
Keith
