Hi folks,
I'm slowly progressing on a build of an Academy M3A1 Stuart for the Civil War campaign. I'm wanting to portray the Marine tank "Pay Off" on Bougainville. The photos of the tank I have found show it with grousers on the tracks. Does anyone know of aftermarket tracks with grousers for an M3A1? I don't know the designation but the tracks in the photos have the rectangular rubber blocks with a grouser about every sixth link.
Thanks for any info you may have.

Possibly this set on shapeways: www.shapeways.com/product/2QZU9D5HR/d48082-grouser-assembly-1-35-scale

Thanks Mark. I've tried to contact the developer to see if they can do the grousers for the T16 track for the Stuart but I keep getting put into a do loop when I try to join. Do you have any recent experience with Shapeways? I've ordered from them in the past but don't remember ever having to go through this hassle. Thanks

Have not ordered anything from there myself. Came across that doing a search for 1/35th grousers.

Should be the same as the M3A3/M5A1 tracks. I have leftover grousers from three kits, but not sure how many that is. Will send PM with my contact info..
