Default M113 makers in 1/16

Does any know of a company who make the m113 in1/16 scale

After so many days i came across chunwai. I like the quality in their products. They have the m113 in 1/8 but the wife would kill me if i spend that much.

Any other company out there who make the m113 in 1/16? I emailed chunwai for a price quote but not getting a response. The tank has to cost less than 1500.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have not seen a complete model, but here is some info for parts to make one it is a German site. They have the hull as a kit. I also drilled down into the site bowlman posted and found a running lower hull for you.

Nice looking model...I'd like one for my IDF unit..BUT, my wife would react just like Floseal's regarding cost ...[:@] Dealing with the old Deutsch Mark was OK, but since the Euro came out, everyhing in Europe has become prohibitively expensive.

Only one I have seen is Tamiya 1;35. Had to scratch make an M-59....there are NO models of it at all. Not even a Brit APC to use as a scratch base. Only thing for 1;16 is to use the HL M-41, reverse the chassis and build up from the tracks. Outside of HL off scale, at least the suspension is there.

for anybody checking this ancient post - Chunwai models makes a 1/8 scale M113. They also make a 1/16 scale M60 tank. Finding prices and ordering information is a problem though

Actually I think Chunwai is out of business.
