Hi
Has anyone seen a 1/35 kit of this mercedes 5t truck a successor to the old L4500 truck.
I believe a resin kit was, possibly still is made by gollwitzer.
Here is a review from another site
http://www.panzer-modell.de/berichte/db_lg315/lg315.htm
Looks ok to me but dont know the make or where to get one from, tried their website but it doesnt seem to be listed.
So any info would be appreciated particularly if you have or know where to get one from.
Thanks
Peter

Hi
Found this one on German ebay
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=160493581307&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT
earlier in the week but lost out to a bid of over 130euros.
Got to be honest wasnt to sorry to lose out at that price, so the search goes on or maybe a scratch build using a l4500 as a base could be the order of the day.

Hi Frenchy
As on previous occassions many thanks for your info, i will watch that build with interest.
Not sure that i would completely rebuild the chassis if the l4500 was close, just not that caught up with achieving 100% accuracy.
Having said that going to order the Tankograd book on this truck, got a Somali truck in mind.
