That's absolutely great!

Whereabouts in Norway - can we count you to the Stockholm 'burbs? We have a rather generous zone to get some numbers. :D

I'll say things are catching on in Viking country - we're getting dangerous again with all this armor! :twisted:

Cheers,

Hiya Ragnar
This is the first time I have posted on the Forum. I had to let you know that I have had an original Tiger here in Stavanger almost since Armortek started. I also have one of the first Panzer IV\s. Included are a German halftrack,Flak 88 and Sherman.

I have been a silent Armortek owner ever since the begginning. I have watched Gill + Mark build up this company into one that has no equal. Mark + Gill themselves are very dedicated to Amortek

One word of warning - Don\t get Gill Looking for rocks.

Rregards

Hi Gary
Sorry for claiming to be the one and only armortek Tiger in Norway, I am not dissapointed that there is someone else out there. It`s good news that there is someone else to "play" with in Norway. Sombody else out there and will beat the Swedes ?
I will PM you later this week.

Regards Ragnar

Hi Chris

Norway calling. We are on the same team, 2Tiger`s in Norway and how many in Sweden. Still waiting for yours? I had to buy a camera, so my building pictures on this forum are somewhat delayed. Everything fits together very well, only had to rework 13 holes within less than 1,2 m/m.
That means no fixing of the hexhead holes. It was a good days work and now the whole lower hull are loose fitted together. Ready for dismantling and going for the Kent treatment.

Regards Ragnar

TIGER in Norway

Post by Bernt Torgerhagen »

Hi, Ragnar and Gary !
I got my Tiger summer 2009 and live in Brumunddal, just have not been checking the forum to much for other Tiger drivers.
Think there are a two Armortek in Gol (?) also. I just posted a help question about one of my motors stopping after a short run, then starts again after cool down ? May be some sort of protection.
Have fun, Bernt.............
