I'm desperately searching for a TRAKZ conversion kit. It's an out of production LVT2 (TX0007). Not the LVT (a) 2 kit. Please let me know where I can find one!! Thanks

MudMarine, are you still looking for a TRAKZ conversion kit? If so try WWW.Stevenshobby.com. i turned an TALERI LVT-(A) 1 ALLIGATOR into a LVT-2
WAS $38.00 through my hobby store. stevens wants $48.00 i think. ouch!! i'm working on a diorama with the lvt2,lvt4,lvtp5, lvtp7 and aavp7a1.
P.S. did you have any luck on water? i used Enviro Tex and Reynolds "Release" non-stick aluminum foil, came out great. might want to check out FineScale Modeler March 2004-Diorama How-To Modeling water. any other question let me know thanks and good luck. uncle snap

I'm using realistic water by woodland scenics. The aluminum foil trick doesn't give me the beach effect I'm looking for. I also turned an LVT-(A) 1 into an LVT-(A)2. I used the italeri kit and scratch built the rest. I think it looks pretty damn nice and I saved $40 bucks! Although I couldn't find any evidence that the Corps had (A)2's in use during the Betio landing. Thanks for the help!
