I am planning to build the Italeri PT 596 as PT 552. The references that I have indicate that the bridge layout on these earlier boats was different than the kit layout. Can anyone direct me to reference photos or drawings showing the earlier bridge layout?
Thanks,
Doug Fritz

I think the man you need for this job is Mr Al Ross he helped me a lot with my build last year. The squadron book PT boats in action is also a very good sauce of info hope you find what your looking for and keep us posted on your progress
