I am hoping to find someone who could send me the parts for a Takom Panther transmission if you don't plan on using it yourself. It is for the Bergepanther D but anything from their A series would also work for me. I will of course pay you to ship it to me. Can anyone help?

There are aftermarket transmissions by Verlinden and CMK.

Indeed

You can also order this set (for less...) from a few online stores as well....

Ebay isn't a consistent source for him to get AM parts.

Scalehobbyist lists them in stock and they are really good about keeping their site current. Better than some other online stores. If they say they have them then they will most likely have them. If you doubt it, send them an e-mail. They reply promptly.

Sprue Brothers also has it in stock

They also have the CMK kit, it's for Tamiya and Dragon kits but I'm sure you could make I fit.
