Does anyone have any information on the fixtures and fittings of the "StadtGas" LPG Conversion of a Tiger 1 ?
Anyone interested in LPG powered German Armour can get a lot of useful information from
http://www.tanks-encyclopedia.com/
under the heading "Gas Powered Fahrschulwanne Tanks".

I think I touched upon this topic a little while ago, Shaun, with a thread I called 'eco-friendly Tiger'. It's certainly worth reinvestigating as, I'm sure, many who come though this portal won't realise just how hard up for fuel the Germans were, post 1943, especially after the loss of the Romanian oilfields, and the destruction, by bombing, of their secret refinery in Poland (?), that produced synthetic fuel

Here's a wee stitch to your thread, Shaun. I really like the Frederick Roland Emmet look of it.
(Emett was the 'Chitty Chitty Bang Bang' car designer)

When Hemel Hempstead New Town was being built in the 50s the whole side wall of the Town Centre Multi-Storey Car Park was adorned with a full size Emmett mosaic,
It was in the true tradition of the great man both relevant and amusing,
Long gone of course.
Philistines are alive and well and living in Town Halls.
The rear view of the PZ2 reminds me of a 60s American tracked multiple barrel launcher

In my long-gone days of public service in London, I lived not far from Hemel, and was partial to the wee intimate theatre they had there. I think it was called the 'OldTownHall' theatre.
In particular, I recall seeing the quirky 'Shakespeare in three minutes', which was really all of the Bard's major plays condensed down to three minutes apiece.
