Since I find myself between jobs at the moment,Ive had a lil extra time to finish some projects Ive been meaning to put together.
Mech Time Fuze M43A3 N.C.R. 1943/Bought after Ebay pulled the sellers auction.Fuze is as mint as Ive ever had.
Projectile Stamped in steel CM93 A M.I.R-1-77-1944-75mm M48 and the lil flame bomb insig. Was bought at an antique shop 1% original paint with dust rust and slight pitting on the back of the shell.Saved this one just in time,another year and it would have been a basket case.Repainted and stamped as close as I could get it.
Case,Steel?Marked,Shell M48 Normal 74mm M18-B1 "The taller 13-3/4" type"Found in a different shop,as is,untouched or cleaned with the big black NORMAL inked on the sid eof the case.
Let me know what you guys think? Good or bad? Maybe it needs weathering?Its my first resto project.
