  • Detailing out Tongde M60

    TD M60a3 all decked out with my accessories that I market for detailing and upgrading these tanks thanks to the crew at JVM 3D concepts that makes my parts.
    The newest item is the scale VRC-12 radio series antenna and soon the sprocket hub caps. The antennas are $20 pre 1991 VRC-12 radios and post 1991 Sincgars radios and IDF radios(same antenna)
    Other items this tank features that I produce are the scale gun barrel and servo recoil, spot light and modern .50 cal ammo cams.
    Also I carry US Jerry cans in carriers and plastic TD m60 track (they run better than metal)

    Wonderful improvement in overall looks. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘. Surprising what a few quality detail parts and a nice paint scheme can do for the TongDe M60.

      Since this tank was built as a demonstrator for my products I have decided to offer it for sale as I have a few other projects I would like to build right now and I would not mind having most of the investment back to build another tank or two.
      The price is 1,000 US plus tax and shipping.
      Here is the list of upgrades.
      metal edition tank 480
      a3 gun recoil drop in kit $90
      spot light 30
      US Jerry cans 10
      vrc-12 antenna 20
      Sprocket caps $10
      ammo cans $5
      MERDEC cammo paint job $400
      custom detailed scale tail lights $10
      custom rebuilt proper working headlights
      Forward angled smoke launchers closer to reality
      scale stowage items of canvas rolls and cammo netting from value gear
      cuatom gun mantlet bellows canvas boot cover
      skeletonized barrel travel lock to look accurate.
      hollowed out frame of the stowage basket from the ugly band TD molds into it.
      it has a HEAT Ir emitter installed and wired incase a person wants to do Ir battle and has an orange flash led in the barrel (not active on TD controller)


      Thats over 1k in upgrades not including the detailed out additions and all the additional labor.
      If I donโ€™t sell it I will replace the radio system and install a battle system and add it to my fleet of battle tanks because these tanks perform so well and this is a real gem.
