Hello and welcome from Argyll and Bute on the West Coast of Scotland. A far distance from Derbyshire. Derbyshire is an are I know very well. I used to live in Breadsall, then moved to Ilkeston, before moving North of the Boarder. May be you could give us some more information, like what are your tanks, your tanking history, and any skills you may bring to the group?

Hello from across the puddle. I'm with Meter rat: tell us more. You don't have to be an eggs-pert at all to join the fun on RCTW. In fact some here on RCTW started by asking about a choice of first tank and have stayed active with us for years.

Definitely an older 12V Mark-1 tank build. The electronics are probably inside that black thing on the right side. Can't tell much from the pics about what's currently in there.

:think: I cannot help with the 1/6 Tiger (except to be envious :D ). However, you might get more response if you post the photos and questions in the "larger scale military" section at "viewforum.php?f=80" There are a number of 1/10, 1/6 and--yikes!--even larger AFVs here who might be able to help and who likely would enjoy seeing your Tiger.

(I was sorry to learn that you have suffered a stroke. The health problem is unfortunate, and I hope you have been able to make a fine recovery. Here's to better and better health!)
