hi al

well just a very long shot ...

has any one ever found a good set of drawings for the paper panzer e-25

i have worked out that the panther sprocket and tracks are good for the job and a set of late tiger or king tiger wheels

any drawings would be just magic .. 1/35th please !

Hi Found this http://henk.fox3000.com/maus.htm
Also could you scale the drawing from the wheels we can work out the the the Dia of wheels and blow up the drawing to the correct size.

regards pete

P.S. according to the write up the wheels were 1,000mm so tiger wheels wont do .

just found this http://www.2iemeguerre.com/blindes/e25.htm

well spotted pete . a panther 2 and a close look at the sprocket seem to show it as a king tiger sprocket with transport tracks fitted
