Hello,

I have a vintage Tamiya 1/48th scale Motorized Jagdpanzer Kanone Tank that I built in the 1970's. The rubber band one-piece track has become brittle and decayed. Could anyone recommend a replacement? I haven't been able to find anything with Google etc. searches.

It looks very similar to the Academy in the following video.

Thank you very much!

The Academy is a copy of the Tamiya so that track would work.
