| Subject: | Re: Which size tracks on this Panzer III |  |
| Date: | Feb 24, 2001 |
| From: | Brandon R. Sutherland | |
Hi Shawn,
Looks like to me this is the 360cm track. I say this because there is
not much overhang between the idler and the outside edge of the tracks.
This hull has all the features of the mid Panzer III chassis (shocks,
rear idler, short rear engine deck, smoke candle dischargers) and
appears to be an Ausf. G to me. The 400cm tracks first appeared on the
Ausf. H from the factory, but earlier versions have been converted to
the 400cm track during rebuilds and repairs. Hope this helps.
Regards,
Brandon |
