I'm looking for a Tamiya M48A3 for a conversion kit for the Legend M48A1 kit.
My Dad commanded one before Vietnam and it's the only option in order to make the A1.
Please message me if you have the Tamiya kit and want to sell it.
Thanks,
Chris

Chris,
If you look at Squadron, I think that the Tamiya M48A3 sells around $28 and Sprue Brothers has them for $23.99, if no one has one that they are willing to give up.

Thanks John. I' just trying to keep the costs down as that stinking Legends conversion kit is so expensive - $83 at Sprue Brothers. I cannot believe no one has come out with a good A1 version yet
Another opition I'm looking into is how much of the Tamiya M48A3 kit is actually needed as I have an old kit I built when I was a kid. The road wheels, idler wheels, tracks and lower hull are in good shape, but the upper hull and turret are trashed. I have a question into Grevious (reviewed the conversion kit) about this, but if anyone else knows I would appreciate it.
Thanks,
Chris

Would it be easier to backdate the Revell M48A2? They are relatively inexpensive from ScaleHobbyist.
