1944 Autocar M16A1 Halftrack
« on: December 25, 2012, 01:37:30 PM »
Here are some before and after photos of my M16A1 project.
I still have a list of things to do but I think it's come along way in 2 years and I basically did all the work myself. I plan on replacing the wiring over the winter and adding gas .50's as well. I hope to have her in a parade or two next year.

I used the Rapco 23070 as seen here; http://www.rapcoparts.com/padenew.html

That's a great bucket, thanks again!

I just received my M2HB's from JC and I think he does an awesome job! I bought the gas setup from him as well but I will have to spend some time getting them setup. I couldn't wait to get them mounted on the quad, the halftrack finally looks like it has a purpose now. Hope you enjoy the pics.

Here's a quick video of my M2HB gas guns firing at night.
