Hello dear friends,

Here is the Burak Özdil's very special work ..He build Mercedes-Benz 3850 Tank Carrier + M-60A3 .

Mercedes Benz 3850 tank tractors are in the inventory of the Turkish Army. There is no 1/72 scale kit for this tractor. Burak found a kit for the Mercedes 2238S model (released by Keil Kraft company) and long transformation process ...

I’m sharing the construction stages today,
