The stamped-steel un-perforated disk roadwheels, like the M113 wears, are part of the give-zaway, but the small front and rear drive & idlers are the kickers. I can follow the thought that its a Russian chassis, as it was similarly styled to the PT76 that came out about the same time, and after its poor performance in 'Nam, it became the usual chassis for the 'vismod' conversions to Russian vehicles for OpFor units. Go have a look - and its definitely NOT a T34 chassis - they NEVER had roadwheels anything like the ones this baby wears.
