Hi:

I just got the new DML 76mm Wet Sherman and after reading the reviews
and the bio on Sgt. Poole, I decided to build his tank. But, all of
the reviews state to use spoked idler wheels and not the solid ones
that come in the kit. Could anyone please tell me what 1/35 Sherman
kit I could get the spoked idler wheels out of or what conversion set
has the spoked wheel. Otherwise, I am either going to have to cut out
the plastic or just leave well enough alone.

As always, thank you for everyone's assistance.

Carl

The original Italeri M4A1 76mm kit comes with spoked road wheels and
spoked idlers, so that is where you need to go. There are also some
after-market resin sets, but the old Italeri kit can be found at shows
or flea markets for as little as $5.
