Re: IDF TOW M151
That looks excellent Stik, tgat's really starting to come together. What do you use for your whip antenna?

Re: IDF TOW M151
Thanks Stuart. The shorter antenna is a piece of brass rod, while the taller one is a brass aftermarket item. I bought a set of four awhile back, had a couple of them left over and decided to use one on this project.

Yeah, it would be a tight fit for the three man crew. But somehow the IDF makes 'em fit in there...

Re: IDF TOW M151
That is excellent work! I had one of Tamiya's Jeep variations on a wish list for a while, this may push it from the list to the cart...

Re: IDF TOW M151
Tom & Robert, thank you.
I’d like to pick up the Tamiya Grenada M151A2 to build one day. It’s just really pricey for a slightly upgraded version of the basic kit.

Re: IDF TOW M151
That'll be cool to see, but no, it's not a often seen kit.
Have you seen this?

Re: IDF TOW M151
No I hadn’t seen that before. Something to keep in mind for my other Tamiya M151 projects someday… Thanks for the heads up Stuart.
