Afrikakorpsrat64 Posted January 16, 2022 Posted January 16, 2022 Hi folks: Looking to restore this Pickelhaube. Looking for parts. What you see in the photos is what I have, so need a lot lol. Just putting my line in the waters to see whats out there. Let me know if you have any EM/NCO pickelhaube parts. Thanks
Davejb Posted January 19, 2022 Posted January 19, 2022 Here in the UK you can find those parts at the War and Peace show but as for any one selling parts on line, you might have a problem 1
Afrikakorpsrat64 Posted January 21, 2022 Author Posted January 21, 2022 True @Davejb, So far have seen nothing. Money's tight now anyway. Just took on a car payment. Tired of the old jalopies Nickle and diming me to death. 1
Gronkollector Posted January 24, 2022 Posted January 24, 2022 I have an enlisted Prussian Wappen available for sale/trade. I purchased it from Helmut Weitze years ago in anticipation of a repair attempt that never took place. Feel free to message me if interested. 1
Afrikakorpsrat64 Posted February 21, 2022 Author Posted February 21, 2022 OK Guys, here is an Update on the Pickelhaube restoration. It is nearly complete, and faster than I had dreamed possible. I managed to find another Pickelhaube with damaged shell that had almost all of what i needed to restore my shell. The orig. chinstrap was too fragile to use so will keep that separate and use an aged copy. I have a nice Prussian Wappen, from @Gronkollectoron the way to complete this. I could use some nice orig. Prussian discs for it though. I used old WW2 era German thread to sew on front visor. 2
