Lewis Garner Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 Wow! What engine does that beast use, surely not a proper Maybach? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Farrant Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Wow! What engine does that beast use, surely not a proper Maybach? I have a feeling this replica may be based on a T34, and the engine seen in this Youtube link is a Russian V8 diesel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lewis Garner Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Thanks for the info chaps, a very impressive project and a huge undertaking, it is great to see such attention to detail being paid to every respect of the vehicle. I wonder how it will drive when completely finished? It would be good to see it in the flesh at W&P at some point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferretfixer Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 That should be in demand for future fimlwork!.........Super Job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antony Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 This is superb, and given the scale of the project, the fact that it may not have rubber on the road wheels is rather irrelevant, everything else looks extremely close to original, it is a phenomenal achievement.

Degsy Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 I'm no expert on any sort of AFV but I'm sure I read somewhere that there were two types of road wheel fitted to Tigers, one of which was all metal. Since I know my memory ain't what it was:banghead: can anyone confirm this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
berna2vm Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 The engine is a 15 litre V8 Yamz 238-D powerplant producing between 240 and 330 bhp. It should be adequate because the replica probably weighs little more than 20 tons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
berna2vm Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 Yes, Degsy. Late war Tigers had all metal roadwheels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enigma Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 This is superb, and given the scale of the project, the fact that it may not have rubber on the road wheels is rather irrelevant, everything else looks extremely close to original, it is a phenomenal achievement. A bit of black paint would do the job on the wheels. It is a very impressive repro! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
