Today, I acquired, a stack of armor kits (many of which I had been looking for since I first "built" them as a kid), among them was a 1/35th hetzer. I have always liked the hetzer, it is probably my favorite panzer. The problem is that the kit had no box an therefore no instructions. I have no idea the manufacturer, there is no makers mark, judging by the age of the other kits, I am guessing it is an older kit. The kit is complete and I would love to build it, but without instructions and little experience building armor I don't know what my options are. If it helps point me in the direction of instructions, the kit is tan injection molded plastic wth rubber band tracks. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Probably the old Italeri kit.

Thanks guys, I found that review after posting and it is not that Tamiya kit. I checked for a Tamiya logo straight away. Since it looks like the old Italeri kit, I will have to track down a set of instructions for that kit.
