Re: Pak 40
Those are actually 251 tracks not Famo tracks so they are 100% correct for our halftracks. I'm glad you like them they are very nice pieces! Can't figure out why they only sell metal tracks for the 251 yet no one makes it other than 21st century and only as a toy?

Re: Pak 40
Jack,
That's a very good question. I know that Asiatam now has the version of the Opel Blitz with tracks on the rear, the Maultier. There are a couple of outfits that produce Wehrmacht halftracks in 1/16 but they are thin on the ground and only found ( by me anyway ) at the German sites. Thanks again for the tracks! I hope to have a little infantry support running beside the tanks here next Spring. ;o)
regards,
Painless

Another piece of the Diorama puzzle came in the Post yesterday. It's a neat little 1/18 scale diecast 42' Harley. I'll have to scout around to find a Courier\Rider now. Preferably some grunt in a long coat with some stubble and an attitude. ;o) Pictures:

Re: Pak 40
You need Captain America in his 1940's Era battle outfit to ride that Harley!

Post came yesterday and brought the last crewman for the Flak 36. He came with the same basic base and Sturmgewehr ( which I found a use for ;o) I equipped him with a cap and did some contortion exercises and got him seated. Flak crew is all present and accounted for. Pics:

Re: Pak 40
Good afternoon,
Going along with Max's Accessory thread, I was out looking for some tracked vehicles to go with the things I am putting together for an eventual village to run tanks in. I found this little beauty on Ebay thanks to Max. The Cletrac tractor is diecast metal with some plastic detail (levers, etc ) and has a beautiful enamel paint job ( that I may or may not have to redo ) Scale is 1/16.
regards,
Painless
