I would be most interested in reluctantly buying A SHORT BARRELLED PZ4 TURRET, Heng Long or Taigen/Torro.
As I will be hacking it around a bit condition is not too important.
Thanks in advance.

Further research shows the Ausf D to have been fitted with the PZ111 main gun on one example and the long barrel PZ4 main gun on something like 40 Ausf Ds which were mainly used in the training role and a number of them had the rear turret box fitted, some did see action which makes using an F2/Ausf G turret viable although it would need some work to backdate it to a D mainly removing the double doors in both sides of the turret and replacing them with a one piece panel with a single door which is included in the Modelbau kit and is also available from WOZ c/o Shapeways as is the applique armour shaped for the upgraded PZ4 Ausf D which is very handy as it means you can avoid re-engineering the drivers viewing port
