Very nice accessory for a AFV club 251 kit. I wonder if this item will work in the AFV club Sd.Kfz 11 kits????? Would anyone here have the answer?

Joe,

actully, they make one for the Sdkfz 11. Somebody else is working on a review of that item so look for that soon.

They also are working on one for Dragons halftracks as well.

wow....we both replied at the same time James! Thanks for the complement. Im sure you will find the Sdkfz 11 engine just as nice. I cant wait to get it installed in a 251 and wire it up.

Great review, Andy!

Just what I needed, while cooking up a new dio-idea!
It has been in the pot for a while now, so I'll definitively will go for this one.

thanks Ron,
you wont be disapointed! Im going to pop mine in a eventual DAK halftrack so I have a good reason to have all the panels open to show off that engine. Its almost a shame to mount it inside a vehicle. It would be fantastic to use outside on a maintenace stand diorama.

Regards,
Andy

What do you think I was cooking up?
I have some pictures of a 251 being serviced with the complete nose section removed!
