Christ this exploded...

Erm so where do i begin?
Thank you all for the kind words of welcomeand acceptence.
I am a Brit so yeah we were the evil ones who ruled everyone else if they didnt have a flag we gave them ours and screwed them over!
Right where to begin with metal parts.
Inside
Steel gearbox, steel bearings modded by myself, rear tensioner unit installed.
Full metal running gear, drive sprockets,road wheels, idler, tracks.
External metal tools, bucket, fire exstingusiher, front machine gun !
Also installed my own front clip system due to mounting metal tracks on the front of the tank.
Also made a metal hull cover and installed that to protect it a bit.
Wanted an early Tiger look also.

I know it might have wrong bits and right bits but here she is minus her three digits yet as im looking into them currently, Any sources you guys have would be appreciated.

Yes, things did get a bit out of hand, what with our teasing one-another. I had fun and increasing respect for three members of the forum. In viewtopic.php?f=108&t=31337, I just posted a list of print sources on the Tiger I and/or useful for Tiger I projects.
