75mm KwK 37 L/24 Restoration

[harrison987]

hey guys...

So.

I am restoring a KwK37. It is pretty much an empty cannon (stripped breech, with barrel only)...so I am in need of ALLLLLLLLLLL parts that are missing.

Breech Block
Recoil Cylinders
All small parts for the breech
Electrical Firing Button
etc.

pretty much anything and everything. Much of the KwK40 and PaK40 items for the breech are interchangeable, or can be adapted to fit.

Besides that, I am lacking ANY good information. I cannot find any parts manuals with drawing or diagrams.

If anyone has any info, parts, spares, relics, etc...please contact me direct.

TIA

Mike

What about some fotos? Might help to understand whats missing, and to keep an eye for it.

HI,

As mentioned, everything is missing from the breech. See photo below.

It looks like the photos below:

I need all items below (images are from the PaK39/KwK40 handbook...but the parts are similar):

plus these: The main housing and recoil cylinders.

Why do you think KwK37 and 40 have interchangeable details?

PaK40 has horizontal breech, so I think no interchangeable details between it and KwK37/40.

Some parts will be similar..but most will be closer to the Kwk40

I have something from Stug III ausf G but main cannon was blown up so parts need work.
