I also added some cross supports to the larger engine deck grills.

Got the functional barrel travel lock mounted. Had to fabricate the mount as I wasn't fond of eye bolts supplied. I used them on the front of the tank for the cable mounts instead. Fabricated handles on the rear engine hatch and got the external fuel barrels mounted. I also scored the side of the hull to represent the side storage boxes which still need detailed.

Added the track jacks and holders. Started mocking up the fake hinges for the bins which run the length of the lower hull. The rear two bins on each side contain a collapsible auxiliary fuel bladder. Still need to add more weld beads and the machine gun barrels. Still need to create a fender support and mock up the fuel hoses going into the side fuel tanks. I actually filled all the holes on the rear deck and repositioned all the deck bolts according to pics/video of the real IS-7.

Some of the weld beads done. Still many more to do. Mocked up the tow cables using the cables from my IS2. They are just the right length to hit all of the holders. Added the post to support the driver's hatch.

Ready for primer. I did remove the tracks and the outer road wheel rubber before priming.

Removed the external gas tank and donated it to my SU-122 project. Installed an empty fuel tank holder.

Lower hull internals. I have built a custom speaker box now and installed a Visaton FRS7S speaker as the TK-50 blew out the Taigen speaker shown here. I guess the extra amps from the TK-50 were too much for the little 3W Taigen.

Jarlath compact recoil system installed to replace the Asiatam recoil/elevation. I never got it working with the Clark board so I replaced it. Not a real fan of those units anyway.
