I believe it may have been a Strickland tractor at one stage

Hi Dale

I am pretty sure I read somewhere that Colin Jones build one of those a while back. I am sure it was featured on MLU.

Cheers

Tony

I don't think it sold. The original listing timed out I think and the price is now 10 grand not 12.

Default Not the best reproduction.

I am making a Vickers tank out of a T16 and I hope to make a much better looking tank. I am taking great pains to match angles and heights so that from 10ft it will look real.
I see this is just a "party tank" but I wonder if it is even made out of steel?
$10,000 seems high for a hull and some spare plate.
