T-34 track question, self inflicted confusion!
Posted by madmike on Sunday, February 27, 2011 9:51 PM

I was recently given the AFV club 1:35 T-34/76 Model 1942 factory 112 kit as a gift for helping out a friend's daughter whose notebook needed cleaning up and upgrading.

http://inscale.org/pub/index.php?topic=780.0

Although I build braille scale armour in the main, I do have choice 1:35 kits in my stash and this will certainly add to that stash.

As such I would like to add a little aftermarket to this kit, the main item being some workable tracks. AFV make a nice set to match the kit, but I would love to get some Fruil tracks rather than Modelkasten or the AFV offerings.

Therefore what set to use as T34 tracks varied a bit. Would the T-34/85 tracks suit?

Love some help from the big kit boys on this one as I am tying myself up in knots unnecessarily over this!

I'm no T-34 track expert but it looks like Atl-09 will work based on you kits box art.

i'm building the Dragon T-34/76 from factory 112 right now and am using the ATL-09s.  Geist is spot on.
