Edit: Found my Build Blog M48 AVLB for Mil Eng Campaign 2011 build of a '57 kit....

Still want the new AVLB when it comes out, better start converting my pension

Please let the M48 AVLB retain the parts to make an M48A3/A5 based one so I can do one of the old NJ National Guard ones Merdc.

I completely rebuilt a ROCO 1/87 scale (which is a copy of the Revell kit) into a M48A3 based one with an all new engine deck and all. One of those "let's ser if I can do it" major kit bashes.

I just finished assembling the running gear the other night. Kits have certainly come a long way since this one came out.

Boy I would like to do an AVLB we had one in my unit in Korea.
I thought based on the M 60 which it might of been, have to knock the spider webs off my company year book from that unit E Co 2 ND Engineers 2 ND Infantry.But I still think ours was on the M60 chassis.

Cheers

And word on the AVLB? I am literally stashing money to buy this thing!

Don’t know if these pics have been posted, but here is the built up AVLB from Dragons web site. Unpainted.
