This guy has changed 1:16 Panzer III Ausf L to an earlier model which is Panzer III Ausf J.

Note also that the gap between the tracks and the mudguard has been corrected.

There is no conversion set to that change?

Well, that's a third party hull. A very expensive one.

No, that's a scratchbuilt modification.


It is unfortunate because such work requires a lot of patience and information. :|

I was wrong and edited my reply. There is in fact a buyable set, but it's a replacement hull that's very expensive.
