Go to:

The-Blueprints.com - The largest free blueprint collection on the Internet

search for: Centurion

You'll find lots of front, back, side and top views of the different types and years. That combined with the dimensions in the links already given and photo's of the real ones should be good starting points.

That site has tons of views of cars, tanks, planes, trucks etc.

Grizzly.com for toys&cachebuster=846641689282859.9&rankBy=relevancy:descending&page=3

I have 3 PDF files that contain lots of photos and detailed drawings of Centurions and various component parts as well as lots of text and statistics about the history and all of the variants.

The files are about 30 megabytes each, so they are too big to email. I could put them on a CD for you.

PM me with your address etc. if you are interested.

Found another plan for you from Toys and Joys Car, Truck, Farm and Train Plans

Avery,

If you want to send big files over the internet you can use this free service. https://www.transferbigfiles.com/ You can send up to 50mb files. I have done it several times to blokes on the forum. Its free only catch is they only have 5 days to download it once you have uploaded it.

that is some tank but I just went in to there site there order must be over 25.oo but the postage is $111.oo how can they justify that

Try Toys and Joys directly...

They're only $12.00 freight for that kit... (to my postcode anyway)
You could look at getting a number of other small fiddly bits that would be costly to post separately...

Edit:
I added some other bits in the checkout, and it kept re-calculating the freight, with no minimum to buy.
And I just entered Moama's postcode and the freight didn't change.

Thanks for that Bret.

I shall make a note of it for next time, but I think it is fairly easy to put this sort of stuff on a CD or DVD and snail mail it, which is what I did. I hope it turns out to be useful.

The Centurion Tank Mk.5 vesion that KBpens&more is seeking is for the Bublacowie Military Museum project which I have, "scored. ' Tank is to be set to 1:15 scale, same as the Tank Carrier it will be sitting on, which will be attached to a Kenny W900 series Prime-Mover.
I have an Australian War Memorial Publication here, ( which I bought secondhand about a week ago ), titled, " Mud & Dust. Australian Army Vehicles & Artillery in Vietnam. " which has extensive photos & editorial content of most of the Australian Army Vehicles, and Artillery used in Vietnam There's even some photos of the unique Centurion, " Bridgelayer," which is an interesting piece of equipment to say the least.
Anyone interested might be able to find a copy at their local Library.
