My Panzerkampfwagen III
I thought I would share my baby with you guys here. I bought her 11 months ago with plans to use as parts for a custom, but I didn't have the heart to tear her apart. Instead, I put a nice chunk of change into her and she is by far my best runner.
Here's the list:
HL Panzer III L with metal tracks
Asiatam lower hull with metal roadwheels and rubber tires
HL Steel gearboxes
Tank Modellbau side antenna converted to fully functional
Tank Modellbau headlight cover
Photo-etched grill covers
Asiatam spare metal roadwheels with fender mounts
Custom rigged front track holders for spare metal links
Hope you guys enjoy.

Re: My Panzerkampfwagen III
I have to agree, they are great runners, everyone should have one!
I like the paint too.

Thanks for the compliments. With the steel gearboxes and rubber tyres, this sucker is a stealth tank. It's so quiet, smooth and corners like a Porsche. I'm currently building up a KV-1 to the same specs and can't get use to the slow, clunky, non-steering beast. The Bulldog sits right inbetween these 2 in performance.
I could really use a replacement copula if anyone has one. Mine had the weak hinges break and I can't yet stomach the price of the metal one at tankzone.
