By any chance did you ever do a Priest conversion? Could tie into doing a 105.

Just a thought

Pickel, you know I went with the SdKfz. 251 backdate. This one has been on hold for a while, I could
use 2 or 3 kits. :)

No I have not , open top AFV have a lot of parts I have done a few of them.

But I have considered doing the Priest along with the 105 mounted in the halftrack .

That too would be a lot of work.

Things are neck and neck ( I voted for the Jumbo ) .

I was kinda hoping for a run away on one offering .

I will be making all of them because I have come so far with them all.

I guess it is between the 251 and Jumbo .

I would eventually like to have all three. I do have a Jumbo related question. Are you mounting the short 75mm gun or the less common 76mm ?

I am not sure about the less common notion . I am no export but I think that they changed out all of the 75s to the 76 for the tanks that were in operation.

I am not 100 % certain. But I was planning on using my 76 barrel.
