Default Plastic gearbox sources?

It's been a while since being a kind of active poster here what with a few other interests and work sucking up time. But, I recently bought a group of orphaned tanks off Kijiji (HL KV-1, PZIII, 2 Jagdpanthers, Mato Sherman), all in various states of disrepair and mild butchering. So, it's time to have some fun getting them back into shape.

Does anybody know if any suppliers are still selling the HL plastic gearboxes? I like the 3:1 conversion using the donor gears from these, but even Matomart said they're out.

Any ideas are appreciated. Thanks,

Mike.

An Australian website vendor called TankArmy.com sells the plastic gear gearboxes for quite a few HL tanks.

how many sets you want and from what tank? Better yet I'll sell you a grab bag of them with at least 4 or 5 sets of complete gearboxes with motors and all. Only missing part will the be motor wires.
Say $25.00 bucks plus shipping. I am thinking you won't do better than that as all motors and gearboxes are brand new and have never been started even.
pm me if your interested.
