I have a couple of Tamiya SdKfz 251's hanging around on my shelf. They need converting #:-) to Ausf A and Ausf B.

The differences lie in the shape of the nose and mudguards and maybe some internal detail changes as well.

Does anybody out there have scale drawings of Ausf A and B???

Does anybody have internal shots and of the seating arrangemwnts???

If so or can provide any useful drawings/sketches, pix or helpful hints of your own please drop me a link or post to [email protected].

Your help as ever is always appreciated.

Cheers,

Scott.

Hee's a couple;

This is a D but might be of interest.

Here's a newsgroup.

Try a google search on the term '"SdKfz 251".

I use to have a link for a site covering the 251. I'll look and see if I can find it.

Here is a very good site, devoted entirely to the SdKfz 251. There is also a two part series of photos and notes at AFV Interiors website, specifically here.

Cheers,

Cheers Linz,

The 251 site is the same link as Salt6's and the AFV interiors is a site which I refer to as well. Goat any 251 pix sitting on your Hard drive you could forward to me?? If so see my first post, it's got me e-mail address on it.

Scale drawings is what I'm after most, I know the nose and mudguards are different, but how??

Cheers again
