Hi Cuski,
Well, I did not know that Cuski was a name since you did not sign your post.
It is good to meet you. However, Paul is right, there is no need to put up
a full name. If I caused you to do a doubletake to see which newsgroup you
were on, my apologies.

I also have looked for the vehicle since it greatly interests me but that
and the early Panzer IV Ausf. G (F2) are harder to find than hen's teeth.
Here is a rundown of Romanian armor and available 1/35th scale kits that I
can recall from memory. If any one has any additions or corrections, feel
free to add or correct the list.

Trucks
Ford trucks were built in Romania. There is a G17(?) truck available from a
Czech manufacturer.

Guns
Schneider M1897 RPM/Mirage/TOM plastic kit
PaK40 Tamiya (best) and Italeri
PaK38 Dragon
Bofors 47mm ATG Mirage/RPM/TOM plastic with ABER update or S-Model
vac/resin
Resita A kitbash from Tamiya's PaK40 & Italeri's ZiS-3
ZiS-3 Italeri/Zvezda
120mm Mortar Dragon (best) or Italeri/Zvezda
ZB30 MG (Dragon QuarterMaster Series had them)

Tractors
STZ resin kit available
Kosmolyets (spelling?) AER (awful kit)
Malaxa (Romanian UE) RPM/Mirage/Ironside

Tanks
FT-17 from RPM
R-1 resin kit available
R-2 CMK Pz 35(t) with MR turret
CMK Pz 35(t)
T-38 Maquette Pz 38(t) Ausf. G (Better than Italeri's)
Tacam (Techmod T-60 with gun from Tamiya Marder IIIr and Azimut wheels)
Tacam 2 CMK kit
T-III Tamiya's Panzer III
T-IV Tamiya's Panzer IV Ausf. H although early and late Gs were used
StuGIII mostly Ausf G so Tamiya's is best but the Ausf F/8 is from Dragon
R-35 Heller kit
R-35/45 Heller kit with 45mm gun added
Maresal Jagdpanzer38 lookalike from Cromwell as a resin kit

Since the particular vehicle you want seems to be camera shy, perhaps the
list above will inspire you to use another model to represent the Romanian
army in your collection.
Cheers,
Saúl García
