Thought you would know Tom...personally I don't even know if he carries or sells all the necessary parts ...you know Jason...he sells a little of everything and that one thing you really need he never lists... I think right now he doesn't list the sprue with the wheels ...think you need about ten of those...maybe more...as I think the sprue only has enough bogies for one or two sets

So if there isn't an alternative...I'd say tracking down a second hand Tamiya lower would be the best bet...and I don't think that will be an easy task as Fury fans will or are snapping them up as we speak

Good Morning,
The first 9 steps in the Manual for Tamiya's Sherman tell you the parts and numbers needed and give the sprues\bags that they are located in. You are looking at 50-75.00 (US) plus shipping to collect all of the parts and screws, etc., maybe a 100.00 depending on where you get them from. Still worth it if you are building a specific tank like 'Fury' Another route is to look for an older Tamiya Sherman for sale. I have seen them complete for around 200.00. Good luck and have fun!

If you're in a rush to build it parting out is probably the way to go... but I tend to agree with the second have of Painless's message...getting a beater 2nd hand is probably the best way...that way you will have extra parts to play with should you need them

Hi,
The parts there do not function you still have to use the small tam springs. Brian...
