OK throwing my hat in the ring with this kit from AFV, resin Zimm and indy tracks links thrown in too, but then it wouldn't be a late Tiger with no zimmerit   |

Made a bit of a start on the Tiger tub. Got to say the torsion bars were a heck of a lot easier than the Miniart T54  |

Anyone who has built a Miniart 54/55 and lived to tell the tale, will have a breeze with what the rest of the world produces  . Grand start there Ian  |

Quite a few in here for a weekend, normally a bit quieter.
Glad you like the zimm, a fair bit overhanging the edges at the moment but I'll trim it up as I add more bits together then I get no gaps

I'm in for the ride Robbo.
