This beauty will be mine in about a week

Since we only turn 50 once this is my present a hand built 1/10 Jagdpanther , built about 25 yrs ago by a gentleman in the Netherlands it’s been owned by a local tanker who is downsizing his collection. It’s got electric chain drive , all metal except the tracks and the tyres and it moves pretty quick. It will need some work like adding a sound card, smoker. Anyway some photos

The Maier Panther ? Honestly I don’t know. It has the coal thief painted on it.
Thanks

It's a manufacturer of a 1/10 panther that was sold a while ago. I wonder if this tank and that one share some parts or design features?

I was just browsing the web for 1/10 Jagdpanther tanks. I saw a thread about Maier panthers , it mentions you can’t sell them in Germany ??
This is a quote from the seller. “This is a hand-built one of a kind by a professional modeler. The year before I bought it it won the Best of Show at the annual Dutch R/C show. There are pictures of it in the German book Ketten- und Sonderkraftfahrzeuge by Gerhard Fischer.” I will have to ask him the builders name again as I have forgotten.
