Title: the tiger tank in Kellys heros
Post by: angeleyesTHE2nd on July 08, 2004, 10:15:29 PM: :)IF any of you recall in the movie "Kellys Heroes" with Clint Eastwood, there were 3 tiger tanks that looked extremely well done.

In actuality though, the chassis was originally from a T-34 tank with wheels added up to 8 all together. However, unlike the real thing, They did not overlap each other Plus, they edited the chassis by making the sides look exactly like a Tigers armor plating.

Have you checked your PM's? I sent you a PM asking you to resize the images in this thread because they are too big and throw the format off. Please do that.

Also, you need to provide a link to the internet site where you found the images.
