panzer 3

Post by doc larsson »

Guys,

just received the above.unfortunately it's missing the mantlet and gun barrel.that didn't put me off though; i thought it would be a piece of cake finding the needed items cos you see tiger,panther sherman and t34 parts all the time ? P 111 ? no chance ! a couple of metal parts for £40+p&p as well. I paid £26+£15 p&p for the tank !!

now the good news !
it comes with metal gearboxes and metal tracks ! Herman Bix has kindly offered me a new complete turret for it !
now questions about the tank itself and some pics.

What's this on the command cupola ?

Hard to tell because the photos aren't super clear, but it looks almost like a speaker grille or baffles for an IR sensor.

Is hard to tell.
Does it already have metal suspension ?
Your new turret will be on its way soon.
