The LAV-25 was the inspiration. I have had the opportunity to inspect it inside and out a number of times. Even went for a ride. No cannon on it though. It was a converted mortar carrier modified for Police use. They refused my repeated offers to drive though.
I haven't been following plans , just modeling off the top of my head. Sort of an Anti-Tank version.
The wheel well will not stay as open as it is, there will be small skirt on top.
I think the body will look better when I get wheels of the correct proportion in there.
I actually thought the body might be too tall
Wow I just looked at the wiki image, Im doing pretty well from memory..LoL
and there are no skirts!
Thank you as always for your input. More to come.
