Halftracks

From the same designer in 1/35th, $23.71 for the set of four:

Personally speaking I think the 1/24th scale track assemblies would look better on a 1/35th vehicle,
especially if doing a halftrack.

Ah, its for 4 - OK! Yes, plan would be to install the 24th scale on a 35th Lav-II 4x4

Size comparison

If they all look the same just count the number & shape of the wheel holes - that will tell you what size / model halftrack it is.

Isn't it cute?

An Arii 1/32 Honda T360 would do for the vehicle - the hardest part would be the tracks.

I recall seeing a resin half-track conversion for the Kubelwagon a few years back.  That might be a good source for the tracks.  Or perhaps one of the rather dated 1/48th scale Bandai half-track?

There's also this



But I'm not sure I want to borrow that setup; it's too big.

Yep, that was the one I was describing. 

Now as for the size, maybe a smaller scale half-track kit in 1/72nd, 1/56, or 1/48 might be the better source for the parts needed.
