That is a really nice start. Are you going all the way down to the frame?

I'm not going to take it down to the frame (I'm not that skilled or patient). I've used my previous halftrack and M20 for reenacting and didn't really do a classical restoration on either. I'll work to make it correct, but it'll be "motor pool" class.

This is my old one at a couple events.

I wish mine was as far along as either one of yours.  Just can't find enough time and money. :'(

Someday the dream will be a reality.

The M2 is my FAVORITE Half Track. Yous looks OUTSTANDING! Have fun with your new project. I will buy another M2 one of these days, but it will have to be complete.  8)
