Pop Quiz - Identify the parts...

Post by Adrian Harris »

Had a bit of a sort out of the fasteners which came with a couple of kits and found these ones.

I know the top right is for the Tiger engine hatches but don't recognise the others, especially all the small ones, which look like grease fittings to me.

Those on the left were the original faux Panther road wheel bolts!

Hi Adrian,
As Bob says the pile of fixings are Panther wheel bolts,
The threaded hex cone is for a Tiger sprocket centre cover, the large cone with hole is Pak 43, the smaller cone features on a number of kits so who knows which one it's from, maybe you'll have to build all your kits to see if you can find one missing. :wink:

Can't really get a feel for the size of them but seems to me there were similar faux bolts supplied for the idler brackets on my
M3 Lee...I didn't use them.

I reckon the 18 small parts on the left are also used as part of dummy studs (CH0310) of the Elefant's road wheel hub caps.
