Great work Nic - despite a slow computer you are making excellent progress and its a treat to read as well!

With you all the way on the frustration of loading up Pics - my home connection dropped from bloody fast to a trickle - 40sec to download a photo from the site :'(

New provider will be reconnecting me in the near future - can't wait !!

I think your IR system really adds to this model - not a cheap add on by any means but really sets your build up as somthing special - well done !!

Thanks Andy....must say though, I have put the panther on the back burner...or should I say I am burnt out!...I go at the tank like hell and then leave it go....on an other note...was cleaning the garage out and did a little on the old tiger...its looking mean now, no skirts, no front mud guards...and at the mo no stowage bin...plus a mod where you cut the whole top off...and loads of steel re-inforcing ...away again for the text two months...so only able to read about everyone's fab mods!

HMMM Tiger !!

Sounds good to me -my Tiger -Tiger Ebbey - in the Tamiya section, no skirts and only one front mudguard - sort of looks meaner that way !!

Looking foreward to seeing you put that together as well !!
