Pick up any book on the history of armoured fighting vehicles, and chances are, this is what you'll find at the beginning. The British used steam tractors during the Boer War, and four of them were fitted with armour plate. Inormally build car models with the occaissional plane and science fiction model. This is the second armour model in my life that I've started (the other one is a WWI Rolls armoured car), and this looks like it will be the first one that will be finished. It was an easy build, basically a box with wheels, and an unusual subject, so I couldn't resist.
