OT: How to Repair Toy Tank Treads

My son got a large M-1 tank with sounds/voices, etc for xmas. The treads are about 1 inch wide. They have almost all fell apart where the thin sections of each tread attach to each other. some are single pieces, some are still together in sections.

Looking for ways to put the treads back together.. The tank is motorized so the treads need to be flexible. Thought of gluing wire along the inside, but have no idea what glue to use that would bond and remain flexible, or sew a long shoestring inside.....

Ideas???

Thx - Craig

Craig,

Have you tried contacting the original manufacturer and simply purchasing replacement parts?
