I got it all put together the gearboxes are mounted on a couple peices of aluminum to brace the hull and raise them up.After fixing the gearboxes they are almost quiet and run alot smoother.

I dont think i like the paint maby just green. If i dont repaint it it will be the first one. Plus the pz3 needs a partner.

Cheap Tank,
Great looking PZ IV. Could you talk a little about the mantlet and gun tube changes. Thanks

The first thing was to throw away the armor plate on the front then cut the mantlet to fit the opening on the turet add a plastic strip on the top and then fill with squadron putty to get the concave shape on the front. I am not shure what these parts are called but the block is just a plastic face cut and bolted to the stock one then filled and sanded the tube is a peice of gutter nail spacer cut to length. The barrel is a left over from my matorro kt cut and turned on a drill and belt sander to get a little taper to it and the muzzle break is a peice of broom handle turned the same way then use super glue and let it soak in to keep it from splitting then drill the side holes and clean up with a small file. Some of this one i dont think came out that great but i wanted to do it without buying a bunch of high priced parts at least i can get my model fix with out going more broke with work being what it is.

It turned out great. I'm using some Tamiya parts on my HL Pershing. Got the mantlet and barrel and recoil all grafted on. Looks 100% better already. Gonna use the Tamiya electronics to .

I think you can just order the Tamiya sprue's for the Pz IV and kit bash them. Didn't somebody just do that here?
