I saw a listing for Tamiya's first release Bradley on EBAY, still sealed, but I went for this version from Amazon because the shipping Was free. I saw somewhere a very comprehensive.PE Detailing set for the interior for the early releases. -

I would like to build a kit that has a detailed chassis like that. As a kid I used to build the ENTEX kits of the Model A Ford in 1/16, and their 1/16 Packard ......full chassis on both. I would also study the suspension types of our family cars and later my own. I'm interested in a couple of Zvezda that show great chassis detail. I would love to get one of the big Tamiya 1/14 RC semi. Well, your doing a great and I'll be following😀 -

Yes, it's not bad. Tamiya used their earlier Bradley and added new parts. The upper hull is new.....in fact most parts are except the lower hull and wheels This was released in the early 2000s. Parts fit is excellent😀 -

Been working on this.....Technically a squirrel, because I had intended to finish another model this weekend, but there You go.. It's Tamiya's M2A2 ODS. I added resin drive housings. These help cover slots in the hull meant for an apparent motorized version, although, I've never seen a motorized Tamiya Bradley. I also modified the resin parts to take Friulmodel sprockets...They're more accurate. The kit sprockets don't have the openings on them. Anyway, some pics...added a Squirrel as well😀 Known as "Handsy" this little creature always pats my finger tips with his paws when I hand feed him. This is the tiny squirrel that I mentioned in one of my earlier posts.😀 "Handsy" the Eastern Gray Squirrel 😀 -
