There are a number of replica's/ movie props in Europe. I recall hearing that Guy Martin got a lot of help from a German enthusiast to build his WW1 tank. This gentleman had made a full set of engineering drawings, IIRC.

It is a humongous task, would you consider building a replica at 1/3 or 1/2 scale? That would make it a more viable option from engineering, cost and transportation point of views and still be an interesting vehicle to display
