Trying to decide is driving me mad.
Re: Trying to decide is driving me mad.
My very favorite old British law is the rule of thumb law, which states that it's legal to beat your wife as long as you don't use a stick bigger in diameter than your thumb.

Just out of curiosity, why the heck did the cabbie have to have a bale of hay in his car? I can't imagine what he would use that for.

Re: Trying to decide is driving me mad.
The supposed derivation of "Cab" ie Taxicab is from the Horse Drawn "Hansom" Cab and the law required the driver of a Hansom Cab carried a bale of hay to feed his horse,
When the last Hansom ceased trading the law remained for over 90 years even though the horse was no longer propelling the cab.

Well my Tiger has arrived. Thanks once again for those who gave their input and thanks to Dave at Forgebear for all his help.
Re: Trying to decide is driving me mad.
Looks good. What are you planning to do with it? New paint? Any upgrades? Will you keep it on the stock Electronics or upgrade to aftermarket?

Re: Trying to decide is driving me mad.
I personally plan to do sweet f.a with it upgrade/paint wise. For me personally this a just something I wanted to drive around and admire. I do plan on buying/making bits of decor for it though and hopefully a few walls etcetera so I can create a diorama or 2.

Where are you? If you're in the states I might be able to send you a few little bits for your tank, like Jerry cans and ammo crates. No charge, of course, as long as you're in the states so that the postage doesn't kill us.

Awesome Tiger 1. The epic beast of beasts! It looks very well outfitted as is. Have fun and be sure to post more photos and maybe even a video of it during maneuvers.

I'm in the UK but thanks anyway. I'm actually looking forward to buying little bits and bats. It's a bit like reverse Buckaroo.Max-U52 wrote:Where are you?
