Kit :  ESCI
Comments:  Darryl says this is one of the best looking tanks . . . plus its Israeli.  He modified the barrel by using model tape and turned the gun into the Israeli rifled 105mm.  Other work includes adding side rails to the turret, scratch-built smoke grenade launchers, mortar and new headlight guards.  He also cut out the commander's hatch and rebuilt a new one.  Other additions include lifting eyes, handles, ammo boxes, spotlight, aerials, .30 cal MG and external stowage.  Mud flaps were replaced.  All markings hand-painted to represent an Israeli Patton from 1982.
