This might be a long shot, but does anyone do aftermarket road wheels for the above APC, to improve the Heller kit? Tracks are now sorted (both Friul and Spade Ace do versions), but the road wheels are poor and my issue has sink marks. Thanks!

I know what you're feeling. But you cna fix the kit roadwheels the way I did it for my AMX 13 light tank. It's not that hard.

Here is the result, not perfect but it will do the trick with the paint on.


This is an early model which was bolted. No need to add the bolt heads to the outer ring for the APC variant.

and while you're at it, consider improving the sprocket outer ring.

Thanks, I have been following your AMX-13 blog with interest, and definitely consider that to be Plan B. But I was hoping I wouldn't have to reinvent the wheel...

Damon.

If you're better than I at casting parts, you'll only have to improve one wheel.
