This is a Vintage!

This must be at least 20 years old!! Got it when I was a kid and then sold it off to my eldest brother who then returned it back to me last week.
The tank couldn't turn anymore but I found it it was due to the clutch. Took it apart and it loosened up. Replaced the mechanical forward/reverse motor switch with a proper ESC and now I got a TAMIYA!

Now, anyone any ideas on getting the turret to rotate and transverse?

wah you are so lucky that you can have that when you are kid.....

I only able to own one after I start working

then again happy to find a bro

this is my not in a very good external but in perfect running condition

time for a formation run

Cool!! I wonder how many Leopard 1 out there?

Did you make your turret rotate, or it's still static?

I've just repainted the leo to nato colors. Will post photos later.

Well at least we know there are 2 now

no it is still in static, but there is always a way to make it rotate. DIY is my normal approach.

What is your plan
