Ref "The White Tiger movie", I had a quick look at some of the film footage and the Tiger1 used looks to be made up from a modern Russian vehicle and looks totally out of proportion, the prop in the photo that I posted is a more accurate copy of a Tiger1 with almost correct early running gear, click on link to see video below. The film contains graphic images of war so you have been warned!
Just had to plonk a few Quad photos in here and a nice Famo with a bent chassis.

I take it that you've not seen the video of Mark doing exactly that to an Armortek Sherman
Sorry Mark, some of us have very long memories ...

I think it was posted to the old original forum, I'm not sure it's on line anywhere now.

I suppose it is more manoeuvrable now but surely it would have had lower ground pressure and more stability left at full length, plus the ability to pick up larger logs ? It looks to me as though it would be quite easy for it to pivot about those stabiliser legs.
