[The long Build]

I have one of these I purchased from a reputable model supplies company, Unfortunately the Tank tracks which are made out of plastic are about as much use as using a piece of cotton to tow a vessel from a tug. The Tank is great , the dealer was great and replaced the tracks from a faulty tank when they first snapped as this happened within the 3 month Guarantee.   Unfortunately it does not take much to snap them ..

The supplier does not supply track spares for this Henglong tank neither do Henglong  (have not emailed them yet) but nothing on their site..

I was just wondering from the Tank fraternity on this site if a metal track is available ?.

Thanks
Larry

These would be the people to ask but it doesn't look to promising.

Nice find but at £9.00 per 2 tracks a bit pricey , only paid 20 for the tank...

Thanks anyway.

I have a Heng Long Sherman, 1/16 th scale, the tracks on that are plastic and have never given problems. Metal tracks cost over 40 pounds for this model. The Firm in Germany called
 Imperial-Modelbau.de have lots of spares and accessories, they speak excellent English and are often at British Model Shows, Ask them, I am sure they will help, also they are Stockists for heng Long. Worth a try...
