Hi, Bill certainly looks like a TT with teeth, but could also pass for something from a Gerry Anderson series.

Well let me be the first to ask,

Are you gonna build one from scratch?

Hope your keeping well,

Tery.

I remember reading about those machines. They steered with the two front and two rear wheels and were supposed to be pretty good at cross country travel for the time. I believe they based their eight wheeled Rad 232 and such on them.

now that I am looking at the pics for about the 10th time, I think it looks like an 8 wheeled Audi TT.....with a turret?

That look different, and nice.

Is it me, or does that turret look similar to the Soviet post war BDRM's. Not that i am suggesting the Russians would copy anything German of course.

I am a Norfolk man and i glory in being so

Definitely one of the cooler inter-war designs IMHO. When Lead Warrior announced this in March, a lot of people drooled over it...pricey resin but still cool. Smile
