Also, the Aussies really seem to have a penchant for kitbashing Matildas with other AFVs. Not too long ago, on the fotocommunity.de site, I found another picture of a Matilda, this time with a Staghound turret and a length of pipe for a gun.

From a model builder's view point, add two new possibles for a Matilda build.
Interesting!
Sgt, Scouts out!

Thanks Costas,
Yes, location would be good. It might be in visiting distance.
