Does anyone know where I could find the Ordnance Models PE sets for the old Tamiya Type 61 tank?

Thanks,

Dave

Ordnance Models did two detail sets but they've been OOP for many many years, maybe since the late 90s even.

I have both sets, they're a bit basic actually.

FineMolds issued a Type 61 recently and did a separate PE set for it, which looks very nice, maybe it could be adapted to the Tamiya kit?

If you're building the Tamiya Type 61, the Modelkasten tracks are worth getting, I think they also come with a new set of roadwheel hubs.

Cheers,

Christophe

Here's the pic of the FineMolds set (courtesy of Hobby Search).
