good to know you hunterkiller! my first tank was also a panzer iii funnily enough i think it was just that to me it just looked the most "tanky" model at the time! (this was before i realized what sort of range was available!) ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Hi Martin

Welcome to the forum. Everyone here has been bitten by the same bug. There is no cure I'm afraid but the symptoms can be staved off temporarily by buying, building or driving more model tanks.  ;D ;D ;D

Cheers
Chris  ;)

Welcome H K,
                        Sahara and Kelly's Heroes were my favorite tank movies when I was younger. Do you know they remade Sahara movie about 10 years ago with Jim Belushi in Bogart's role. It is just great and looks fine in color.  The Pzr III is a great tank to modify. With a name like that you should make youelf a Jagdpanzer of some type. I have a Jagdtiger and it is my all time favorite R C Tank. I've already converted a H L Stug III to full option Tamiya for I R tank battles. I also am building a Jagdpanzer IV  Lang from a H L Pzr IV. It's going slow but alot of fun.

Welcome to the hobby and good luck.    Bob thecommandernj
