The OT series are really unique vehicles and aside from the visual similarity to the Wartime German halftracks, they really share no parts in common. Dimensionally they aren't even the same. The roadwheels, front wheels and tracks are all unique. The track is nothing like the Skoda 38 tracks. Its more akin to the old SWS halftrack. If you want to make a model of the OT you can't really convert a 251 either. George Bradford/AFV News sells an excellent set of 1/35 drawings if you want to try to scratch build one.
What Trumpeter tracks do you want/need? Most of their tracks are not that good... thick and springy. You could try buying them via Hobby Link Japan, who sell individual parts and sprues from assorted manufacturers.
