Yes, the kit from AFV Club (as far as I know nobody else makes Flak 18 in 35th) will have to be rebuild to create this one. I know somebody use to make a conversion, but it is easier to build it yourself than try to find one. Plus, how historically accurate is it?
I am not looking into creating a mounted version. I think the towed one looks way more cooler. So if anyone comes across any pictures of this thing, I will really appreciate it!
Unfortunately the Sdkfz8 kit from Trumpeter will not work. This is a totally different "animal".

P.S. your first picture shows the 7,5 cm Flak L/60


Thanks, Ralf! I didn't even think about 75mm version...
Minus to me
