They're still around? They didn't show up in my googling. Neat.
They are also on eBay, sorry, can't remember their selling name, but I'll have a look.

Hmm, I see the sprockets, but not the tracks.

So you are looking for the T-81 tracks. Impact may have some left over. You can contact them through Facebook "Impact Upgrades" or email them at mitosal_sq@yahoo.com for availability, but they will be expensive.

Just had new pics come in.
Seems I’ve got lucky.
I reckon this could be my first non- German or Russian tank

Thanks Mr Prime, deals not done yet.
It ran off a common transmitter so it’s not a runner as it sits.
That could be a deal breaker

A question for those Pershing=holics out there, the drivers hatch on the one I am looking at should have a periscope I imagine ?
If so, does anyones have a spare Tamy or H/L one I could get hold of to improve and graft on if I do go ahead with it.

It has been a few years since I did my research. But, they should be retractable with a brush guard on them. So, you don't always see them.
