Metal Panther tracks but by whom???

Post by dgsselkirk »

Hey Guys,

I sold a Panther these tracks where on and did it static so put plastic on. For the life of me I can't remember the make! They have large pins and the center guides are punched out. Thought they might be Taigen but there are no markings at all. I am going to be selling them but of course want to list the manufacturer so any help appreciated. Note: They came painted kind of a glossy black and I have re-done them to be more realistic and gave them a nice hard lacquer coat. Oh, and if anybody is interested in them shoot me a PM before I throw them up on ebay.. Thanks!

I would have gone Taigen, but those pins are not Taigen, or not the same as my sets anyway.

They look like Tamiya track pins , but those tracks ? - note the 'rounded' tops of the track guides . :think: the plot thickens !


Edit ;- Mato !

Were they meant for one of the pair you were working on?
