I think if you're gonna spend the time on building that 88, you might as well set it up in a deployed position, if I wanted to see a towed one, I'd just tell you to modify tamiya's.

Sorry to rain on your parade, and you may do as you please, but I beleive the Famo was not in general use towing the 88. Its main use was by werkstatt companies for recovery purposes. It did tow very heavy artillery pieces, the 88 being mostly towed by the lighter SdKfz. 7.
