My lates addition, build purchased off eBay
Saw this today and could not pass it up. I have been looking for a good deal on a Tamiya Jagdpanther. I would have purchased a kit but this one looks like a quality build and way cheaper than the F/O kits are going for.
It has a steel Darryl Turner track tension kit, metal tracks, gearbox brace, metal elevation arm for the barrel. It has metal tracks and roadwheels with a full bearing kit.

Very nice. I bought my Hooben T-55A from that guy and it was a cobbled up POS that I still haven't been able to get running right. That one looks good though. Hopefully he packages better than he did with the T-55A.

Great bargain and a nice looking tank but please paint that fire extinguisher an appropriate color when you get it. I won’t sleep well until you do.

A great find Barry,
Is there a secret part of E-Bay to which I am not privy because search as much as I can I never find these wonders ?

I find using incorrect spellings in the search can open up a whole fresh list of items that get missedjarndice wrote:A great find Barry,

Looks great with zimmerit. Only repaint fire extinguisher and copper rope Bit of weathering and it will be great model.

I contacted him about the shipping as it is a big concern. He assured me it would be packed well, this will be my evidence should it arrive damaged and poorly packed.tankme wrote:Very nice.

I checked his feedback and it is 100% positive. Sounds like you should have left him a lower mark.
