Churchill vs a Smart car

Post by Armortek »

The Churchill Mk III is progressing well - production of the hulls are all but complete at this stage.

The photos below show the scale compared to a Smart car.

Nice Churchill, is that a one sixth scale car or a car for one sixth scale people?

I don't believe that the Smart Car will be very practical to transport the Churchill unless you can tow a small trailer with it... :D
Also perhaps the Churchill could tow the Smart car should a breakdown occur...

Looks like the Smart car is going to have the last laugh :wink: - here is a picture courtesy of Derek showing his Stug III in his Smart car.

Well I'd hate to be his people passenger... just goes to show where there's a will there's a way!

The real last laugh is at the fueling pump, my cars turn their noses up at nothing but the best grades...
