Is it your intention re remove / cover the original paint work on these new ones?
Is it your intention re remove / cover the original paint work on these new ones?
This is a really cool thread. I love sdkfz 251s
Yes, a very interesting thread watching the progress. Keep those photos coming.
My intention is to restore them and give them a new coat of paint for my ongoing project.
Yesterday another wheel with spacer arrived, this one has all the parts inside the spacer. This means I will now know what I am looking for, yes I do have the parts list, but more importantly I have original to make copies from. Also arrived the other day my first track link, this will also go in the restoration queue as it has all the internals too.
Nice - that spacer is a real bonus ; they always seem to be missing from the wheels.
Yes they do, mainly the one's used as cart wheels. This one and another that I have coming from Russia have come out of the ground so are untouched, I also have another track link coming as well from the same person.
I will continue to watch your progress with great interest. A great project indeed.

Another wheel with spacer and track link arrived today. I think I will have to start a new thread on the restoration of these parts under the heading 3 ton half track, as it has now got to the stage where it is just not wheels but other parts as well. Pictures of today's arrival.
Fantastic stuff! Looking forward to the '3 to half track' thread!
Jonathan.
