Hooben VK4501 conversion to VK4502h

Has anyone tried to do this yet? I have an extra Porsche turret, the bottom of the chassis looks to be unchanged so it is just a matter of doing the upper right? Isn't there an upper already made? Thanks for the help!

Hi,
I will look forward to following this build.
I have just about finished this Hooben makeover for a friend.
VK4502 looks awesome.

Cheers AK
