Has any one out there some pictures of Track grousers attached to the sides of whippets?

I would like to try and put a  grouser rail on the sides of a 1/72 Emhar Whippet. I have seen a couple of very small pictures from a 1/35 resin model . I wonder if someone out there has already attempted this project. Help!

I recommend taking a look at the walkaround pictures of "Firefly" on Landships2:

It shows the rail that the spuds hung on, but not the spuds. The rail does not protrude very much.

thank you gentlemen for the prompt replies. The picture is much better than the ones I currently have.

Not sure which resin model you've looked at but have you tried Accurate Armours web site. It has two pictures of their resin kit that shows the detail you need.                                                                                                                                  http://www.accurate-armour.com/ShowProduct.cfm?manufacturer=0&category=1&subcategory=1&product=1747

Just had another look at the review of Emhar's 1/72 Whippet, here:

http://www.landships.info/landships/kit_reviews.html?load=kit_reviews/Emhar_Whippet.html

If you look at Peter's in-progress pic it shows that he fitted the spuds rail to his model. It is number 6 in his list of modifications, but he hasn't put a number 6 on the photo.
