Guys, can anyone point me in the right direction for an 76 turret conversion kit ( new or second hand) for the above tank.

Many thanks,in anticipation.

Hey, there's a resin one from one of the German manufacturers, but tbh I would get the trumpeter kit as it provides a nicely detailed upper too

It's also only marginally more expensive

I used the Trumpeter kit. The Tamiya M4 turret ring as well as all the other parts fit perfectly. recoil was the only thing I had to add because the M4105 didn't have it.

Second that........ The upper is a little flimsy but it will be the proper one than the T34/85 version from WSN. Even if you don't use the upper it still comes with all kinds of details bits and bobs for your build.

Here is one I have extra. 42 Mickey Mouse" style. It has Servo recoil and elevation, IR emitter, high intensity flash, and functioning hatches. Only thing it doesn't have is apple installed but I could do that too. Easy to work on if you have to, the upper and lower turret are held together by magnets! It is set up for the HL turret ring and if memory serves me WSN has exactly the same points. Primed and a light shot of Dark Green on it...

You mean this upper?

Sorry Gary, turret sold pending payment. I may have another though. Let me know exactly what you want on it as far as electronics and I will see what I can do...

Thats OK, no worries many thanks for the thought anyway.

I'll second (or third or fourth) what the other guys have said; you'll be paying nearly as much for a resin conversion turret as you will for the whole Trumpeter kit. I'm actually in the middle of converting one myself. It's a bit of mucking about, but you're getting a lot of kit for the equivalent of 50 quid.
