The other one is going together so well I had to see if the rear quarter of this one would but I soon found out the problems with the other Sexton was the same with this one.

Can't turn back now,it's paid for. Tony lee

I've got a pair of Sextons in the stash. What precisely is the fit issue you are wrestling with? I can't say I'm surprised, considering these are Dragon kits, but they are the only game in town for the subject.

Dragon? A QA department? Not likely, at least not for anything Sherman or related to it. When I decide to play with mine it sounds like I have some trimming & shimming to do. One kit will become a Sexton; the other one is held for major surgery. The Australian Yeramba is basically a Sexton fighting compartment grafted onto a Grant hull, and that's the objective. Eventually...

Update

A little shaved off here and trim a little bit off there,not perfectly square but close as I could get it. Tomorrow i'll take care of the over hang of the side rear corners.

Not a bad day after all.
