I didn’t sell this one and decided to keep it - a veteran of garden warfare and in need of some light tlc.
Came with a radio, batteries and a battle system installed.
Torsion bars had sagged after sitting on its suspension for 15 years - this is why I put mine up on blocks!
Ordered new ones from Axels along with idler support bearings.
A strip down and removal/clean up of new parts in soapy water and I’d decided what to do - mid production Russian Front.
Removal of the front outer road wheel and fitting of the Tamiya supplied hub, a neat part I had missed ok previous Tiger builds.
Atak zimmerit and mid/late parts purchased from Dave at Forgebear.
Some filling and sanding later and she is now in red oxide primer.
Schumo aluminium barrel to follow shortly.
Picked up a brand new set of Tamiya Tiger tracks for £20 as well
Enjoy the photos.
