Just trying to figure out which set of Friul tracks would be the most
accurate/appropriate for the PzIIIL.

I'm also looking into trying the Gunze Sangyo Panzer color sets and would
like to know what is the best thinner to use?

TIA

From the descriptions of the different track sets, the PzIIIL is not listed.
Most if not all of the descriptions I've seen stop with PzIIIK.

: Just trying to figure out which set of Friul tracks would be the most
: accurate/appropriate for the PzIIIL.

    As long as it is 400mm wide, it doesn't matter. The Pz IIIH
   was the first to use the 400mm track, btw.

    The most useful question you need to ask, I expect, is where
   was the vehicle you wish to model/when, and that will help you
   choose the track.

Thanks Bruce.  I still have to do some digging around on the when and where
part.  I've picked up a couple of interior sets, a Verlinden and a Tank
Workshop.  Thinking about doing one in North Africa and one in Europe.

    So that would rule out the Ostketten traks, then. :-)
