Chuck,

This kit had the reputation of being the most awful resin kit of the Luchs (at that time Des Kits and Accurate Armour also made Luchs resin kits). I remember the tracks looked really bad.

If you want to build it , either get a set of Friulmodel white metal tracks (expensive) or better yet, post an ad in the wanted discussion group, I'm sure someone who used the Friul on his kit can give you (or sell you real cheap) a set of leftover ICM or Techmod individual plastic tracks
and sprockets.

You can also check it for accuracy against my photos of the Saumur Luchs in Track-Link's Image Library.

Cheers,

Christophe
