The Engle Piston tank a 750ml is not that expensive and neither is the BTS switch...Order or price them up from Engle modelbau in Germany NOT from over here. www.Engel-Modelbau.de is the site they produce all sub kits and bits and it is the best quality in the world !!!You can ring them up and pay with credit card and the order usually gets to you in about 7-10 days the service is exceptional. The 750ml tank is 157 EUROS and the BTS2 is 57 EUROS. 214 Euros = £146 plus a little bit of postage. Hope this is of use |
Thanks for the info, much appreciated. I think I'll build her as static diver.
I'm also trying to locate the brass deck kits to upgrade her. I've tried Modelbrass a couple of times now with no reply. Is there an alternative kit/supplier.
Thanks.
