With the assistance of the chaps on the Tank Museum stand at the War & Peace Revival Show, I managed to get my BARV pictured next to the real thing:

What inspered you to built this. I just had a quick look on wikopeda and it dose sound like an interesting idear is it water proof ? if you could find a pond or lake with a solid bottom and genatl inclind you could try draging stuff out of the water. It looks like it makes a fiar bit or torque ?

I didn't build this model, though I was in the planning stages, as there is a full size one a couple of miles from me, at the REME Museum.

It is fully waterproof, as shown in these pictures, taken in the back garden of the chap who built it:
