My restored M15A1
« on: September 01, 2013, 06:17:38 AM »
Here's some pics of "Nick's Fury".  She's done except for some gun elevation gears and putting the completed side armor on.

Looking' good Mike.  Can't wait to see it completed.  Is the armor done or are you still fabbing it?

WOW, That is outstanding to say the least!! You did an incredible restoration and the fabrication is first rate. Question about the color photo. It looks like the drivers side but mirrored to look like the passenger side yet all the writing and numbers are correct. What's up with the photo? Where is the battery box and ax or do you have a shovel and pick on both sides? Again, you did a fantastic job.

Top pick is reversed.  It is actually a photo of the left side.  I never even noticed!!!!  Trust me: the right side of the vehicle has been restored as correctly as the left side.

By the way, not all of the gun system is repro.  The gun barrel is a NOS automatic 37mm and the sighting system is also NOS

Is this M15A1 still operational and in someone’s collection? I have wuestions in the rear fabrication-restoration. This is a mega old post but worth a try.
