- SOLD!🎉🎉
AusArmour is acquiring parts to make our original Tiger I a runner, so we have decided to move on our Tiger I replica (featured in FURY) to a new loving home.
Beau and the rest of the crew got this terrific exhibit into running condition several years ago. Your re-enactor group would certainly be the talk of the town with this beast!
This was the first time we have been in this vehicle for about 2 years and it started first go (with the help of some jumper cables!). If you're wondering why the rear decks are open, they are quite heavy and we left them open so we could easily get in and jump start it (in case Beau stalled it).
As an ex Scania Master Technician I did a quite 'YEESSS!' when I saw the engine. That DS14 V8 is a monster engine. Totally unbreakable. I restored a 143/450 with an earlier version of this with mechanical fuel injection which was 'fun' to set up.
Proper sound as well ...
👍
Hi there, quick question or two: (1) which version/model year of the V8 engine with mechanical fuel injection was the most powerful and (2) what is its reliable power tuning potential?
@@tooFATtoRIDE Now why would someone feel the need to ask those questions .....??
Hmmmm....
Whatever dude ....
1) It depends on the market to which you are referring. Euro standard engines put out the 450HP I mentioned in DS14 and DSC14 specification. the 4 series introduced electro mechanical and an R144 would put out about 530HP.
2) I have no idea for the simple reason at a Main Dealer we managed factory specification vehicles. We weren't a race shop.
Even with non-original type parts in it, it's still good to see another one of those beasts operational.
Yeah a resto mod
one shot from a old ww2 tank and its gone
This is SO MUCH better than the "Tigers" used in Kelly's Heroes and Private Ryan, you did a GREAT job on the road wheels configuration, damn amazing effort !!! Looks GREAT !!!
I think the kelly is a T 34 with wooden slats.
Still better than the “panther” in a bridge to far which was a leopard 1 with additional parts

At least it was german.
Battle of the Bulge (1965) : US M47 as german King Tigers
What did you expect them to do. Raise tigers out of the fucking ground? You guys are stupid
@@kamikazefilmproductions
Stupid is as stupid does.
Of course we knew, they had no Tigers or Tiger mock ups. Those were great movies for their time, but seen with todays eyes, it's funny to see those tanks acting as tigers and panthers.
Just watching that move gives you an idea of the sense of power a person must have felt.
or fear if you were outside, one can see where the daleks get their good looks from
Does it come with free postage and handling?
Hope so i would go broke if i had to ship and handle it
I'm betting that it handles like a tank.
You folks are an INTERNATIONAL treasure. Thank you for all your efforts in keeping history alive!!
Not international, historical treasure.
@@HappyGM-R an international Historical treasure.
They buy and send restored vehicles and parts all over the world.
Outside of the tracks and suspension, it's probably the most realistic replica of the Tiger that I've seen ( well, other than the plastic Tiger at Koblenz and the running replica that the Russians created for the movie White Tiger but never used).
Yeah the Russian tiger takes the cake for most accurate replica
its not koblenz its Munster -
The work they put into this replica was astonishing
Love the iconic sound of the scania v8 greetings from 🇸🇪
Have to imagine it would be pretty darned terrifying to hear one of those rolling up on your position, when you don't have anything heavy enough to take it down.... YIKES!
Until it breaks down 🤣
Tom Hanks took them down with their socks, grease n some explosives! 😉
@@MrPaulviles …
I have some Christmas socks, a pack of Super-Bubble and a few dozen fire-crackers, do you rhink that would do it? .
.
I can’t wait to take me out a Tiger! 😺
@@MrPaulviles Yeah but the tanks were driving down a street surrounded by bomb craters and destroyed buildings,
It also never had close by infantry support which is a big no no for any tank of any era
Didnt matter. Slow as fuck, unreliable and bad sights aka bad vision
Brilliant stunt double. Thanks guys for sharing. You do such great work. Your on my bucket list to visit (from Tassie). I visited Bovington Tank Museum back in 2010 where I saw many great vehicles and touched most of them - including Tiger 131. Great trip that I will always remember. Cheers
Imagine having that parked on your drive it would be really cool.
Cool? It looks like you bought it from aliexpress...
I dont care, i would be freaking happy!
That thing is terrifying!! good luck with the sale!!!
Thats a film makers dream
A much more convincing Hollywood Tiger than the T-34 mockups we've seen in earlier movies. The only giveaway is the slightly higher placement of the drive sprockets, but it's still orders of magnitude better than the other faux Tigers we've seen over the years.
Well done!
Great work gang , a hearty well done .
🤔 real one taking its place, talking about King Tiger parts in last video 😂👍👍👍👍 keepnup the great work boys
We all feel Happy and proud of our creations!!! And blessed if one can help another! This ''505'' we are ain't dead yet!!!
For a replica Tiger tank, it looks way better then the fake Tiger T-34!
My thought exactly, too bad they couldn't copy the tiger drive sprocket.
I know right
I think there is a JS1 tiger in the movie White Tiger
I would love to know more history and statistics on this mock-up of Tiger 131.
Just what you need for putting the boat in at the holiday home.
I wouldn't want to be the one to have to jump in after it had spent all of a summer day sitting in the sun at the boat ramp car park! OUCH
Looks and works pretty well for a replica 👍👍
But by the sound of its engine you instantly can tell it is not the real Maybach.
ever see the one made in russia a few years ago for white tiger
@@corpnut2906 that was a real crap
@@rebeccawarren2976 i agrre
@@rebeccawarren2976 oh i agree
I am a 1 fanatic.Book upon book upon model,even original training manual,my 1/16 is on the way...now Aussies,even though you have some Russian chassis components,your ability to give the world a second functional panzer 6....is a gift from the gods.....l thank you for all modelers in the world and history buffs for taking this and recreating it....bless you guys...
good working anyway!!!!Looks better than all others i seen before
🤩
It's probably the best running Tiger I ever. Cheers AZ team
Have you never heard of Tiger 131 the only running tiger left. It was restored to original condition. Try getting an Engine for a tiger is almost impossible.
That thing is Amazing!! So Awesome seeing videos of these things rolling through the dirt lol love it , although I couldn’t begin to imagine holding an M1 Grand in my hands and that thing rolling up on me lol
Does this mean you're doing some fundraising to get mechanicals put in your rebuilt Tiger? :)
One could only hope
I would love to see the 88 on 131 be usable again just so people could see how powerful it is
It would probably be easier to have an 88 field gun fire, although with blanks you don't get to see the recoil, same problem when they fire FURY at the tank museum, its basically just a bang and smoke.
@@johnfarscape use paper or something similar to a wad to simulate the recoil? i read somewhere that's what they do with historical firearms like muskets.
@@nightshade4873 it's got to be of simular weight to the actual projectile to give a somewhat accurate response, with historical tudor or nepolionic period cannons we shove a load of wet straw and mud down the barrel to effectively cause a barrel blockage which does give some recoil, this does mean that nothing can be in front of the cannons for a very long distance otherwise it will get pelted with straw and mud hard enough to do some serious damage, it would be very hard to recreate that at a tank show for safety. . I have seen a system that uses pyrotechnics and a heavy sliding weight with a completely fake cannon that looked interesting, the weight is basically under compression via a large spring at the muzzle end of the weapon and when fired a pyrotechnic charge pushes smoke out around the weight at the same time the weight releases and hits against the breech end of the cannon causing an impressive recoil effect. . Lots could go wrong with that if scaled up though.
@@johnfarscape i see, i was wondering if it could be done but i guess the higher pressures would just spit the wad (and probably even merged it) out as a whole piece than being burned by the propellant or even scattered enough that it doesn't hit anybody in the direction the gun is pointed on.
although is it possible to do on ranges for demonstration?
here i am wondering if something similar to a direct impingement system like those found in small arms can be implemented in these kinds of large caliber weapons mainly to simulate recoil, i guess i can only leave that to future engineers willing to work on it.
@@johnfarscape In the movie "The Beast" they used water shells to force the recoil.
Fire of a shot
Excellent stunt double, even down to the the shrapnel holes in the exhaust shields.
i collect model tanks and soldiers and seeing tanks like this is fantastic all the hard work you put into it,looks like the original tiger maybe not 55 tons but.........
Ironic that despite it being a wild hodge-podge of parts, it's significantly more reliable than an authentic Tiger I with all original parts :P
Betting it weighs 40 tons less helps!
What do you actually mean?
Compared to WW2 performance and reliability, or an 80 year old original today?
The Tiger's unreliability issues are mostly just propaganda, it was pretty damn reliable if you actually look into it.
Looks incredible
Now I know what I'm saving my money for :D
I’ve been to Bovington tank museum and up and close with Tiger 131, even though they were an engineering nightmare it’s still the star attraction.
Oddball is on the phone, hes definitely interested.
It was amazing to see the german tiger 1 tank at 2018 Australia artillery museum tank fest 2018
Really brilliant and great Channel
Great Job guys!!!
Amazing.... Good Job...👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Awesome! I wish some germain company would do a reproduction run on the tiger. Civilian model with power washer
I have to wonder if Bovington Tank Museum would be interested in it to go with Tiger 131 as it is a major attraction for them. Having this would extend the life and save on wear on 131 as this is a runner.
if you have a genuine article why would you want a bitzer?
Sprokets and tracks are a bit different from the actual Tiger unless these are the "rail transport tracks" used to ship the tiger from one location to another. Never the less it's an awesome Stunt Double!!
Really impressive 👏
Common guys track tension is different on both sides ,this is not the usual standard and expect a pub day to blame . Cheers all the best and thanks for the vid .
CCool gentlemen, cool!
Sehr schönes Replika vom Tiger I 👍
Son: Mum can we have Tiger 131?
Mum: No we have Tiger 131 at home.
Tiger 131 at home...
Looks good but the front drive sprocket seems a bit too high.
It was only the front drive sprocket that ruined the illusion for me, everything else looks great.
When you put a gearbox in an already made chassis the drive sprockets are gonna be where they are not much you can do about it. However a larger diameter sprocket like the spoked ones on a real tiger just might tidy things up abit. Or lowering the floor of the tank both of which would cost a fortune.
@@warrenchambers4819 Yes mate, you'd have to work with what you've got and do what you can inside a budget. There is a vid on YT of some Polish (I think) guys that build Tigers from scratch, they use ex-Russian APC engines. Really worth a watch if you can find it.
Beautiful 👍
It's not exactly a 1:1 copy hull-wise right? Something about it seems slightly off.
the thing that is off , is that it as road track, not conventionnal all terrain track
Drive sprocket is too high. Hull is probably shorter than the real one.
Top of the hull about 5 inches too high. I measured it.
The ultimate Man Cave must have haha
Need a bigger cave
Would be perfect for reenactment group.
Yeah they’d have to be careful not to run each other over tho
Would be great in a Few movies , add some cgi firing the 88 mm
This should be given to Bovington to be alongside the 131.
Awesome, german tanks and technicals
It needs some track tensioning😉
The sprocket is too far up and the idler wheel is meant to be down but I am really Impressed by the beast of a tank
I did not know they built one for the movie, that is so cool! Puts Saving Private Ryan to shame. Those tracks are way to lose though.
I hope that they will be able to get the other Tiger up and running. If so, then it would be cool to see that tiger drive with Tiger 131 in UK.
Nice to say bye to that thing to rise money for the real deal!
You must be joking 😂
@@zaynevanday142 have you read the description of the video genius ? They sell it to buy parts for the running gear of their recently restored Tiger 1.
Amazing!!!
i hope it will sold for another movie!!!!
Thanks for a nice video. Soo … you trust Lotte to drive your tanks properly but you do not trust Beau🙂🧐! Good job on this vehicle. Does this mean that you have already lined up some critical Tiger parts that are in useable or repairable condition?
it's the transport belts, the original ones are wider
Freaking awesome. Do hope it stays in Oz!
I hope it's used in future movies. Keep the original models safe and well in museums where they belong. Start making identical remakes that can be used and abused.
It could use a bit of a suspension lowering.😁
Everything looks better low 🤌🏼
Even tanks 😂
It had to be cut in Half to be shipped! Would that have to be done again to ship it out to the Buyer?
Time to go on a road trip to Paris. 😳
I just witnessed a legit, restomodded Tiger 1 Tank.
That would be a trip at the local cruze in!
C'mon guys. You gotta' tell us how much something like this went for...
Bring Her up to my place boys . !
Wouldn't mind having it park in my back yard.lol
Реплика-да. Но ни как не Тигр. Лайк за работу!
всё равно очень хорошо вышло, не чета колхозу из т-34 в "спасти рядового Райана"
Drive sprockets not in correct position (looks too high) and the tracks come from T-55 probably, because looks narrow to me, like the train transportation tracks of Tiger I..
Otherwise it's looks the most authentic, awesome replica of the famous Sd .Kfz 181 Tiger I early modell.
Bedankt
Except for the narrower T-55 tracks and the T-55 drive sprocket it looks great.
It'd do till you found a real one
Im going to ask Santa to bring it here for a real very merry christmas!
It looks very weird, but I love it!
It would be a very close copy if the tank had wider tracks installed. Their must be originals out there somewhere.
War looks so exciting , wish we could - er oh wait never mind
Looks nice. I think there is to much slack in that track.
The sprocket wheel is to far up.
That's why the tracks look kinda off
That is absolutely the best fake Tiger I have ever seen. Funny thing, though, the fake Tigers in Kelly's Heros look scarier than a real Tiger!!
Please make sure its covered with bubble wrap and put a "Fragile" sticker before its being shipped💀
Just curious how much it was sold for ?.🤔
What kind of mileage does it get? Do you have the Carfax report you can share?
Too late now, but I think it's a better attraction than some of the original stuff. Why sell it? I guess it's far from cheap keeping that place open.
Thanks for the hard work. But it looks weird.
This is fantastic, but IF I could buy a tank, $$$$$, I'd prefer a Matilda II....... ha,ha.......dream on
An old mate who restores motorcycle instruments just did a beautiful restoration on a Matilda speedometer for one at the museum at the Lancer Barracks at Parramatta
How much did it sell for?
wish you could get your original running like that. Does the turret rotate?
How much is this selling for ?? Haha im interested as being what it is
No offense as much as i love the movie and the hard work in making this prop now run and drive, id rather spend that coin on a real centurion or even an early leo.
But as always hats off to you guys!
When will be this year's tank festival?
So cool.
That must have been a tough choice to make.
I like tanks, if I had the money. Hopefully it will find a good home.
Had me worried for a minute.
Come on Lotto!
How come at 2:29, the very front outside road wheel spun backwards and even faster than the speed of the track?
