Andy, he's looking for s.Pz.Abt. 502, not 501.

Tiger 121 has the best photo coverage of the unit, thanks to the Russians using it as a target. What do you want to know?

Wrong 121. He wants photo references for the Initial production vehicle which was delivered to the Leningrad Front in August 1942, like this:

Thanks guys. If I follow kit instructions for #123, I can build 121. To use camo scheme I need two right handed tracks. The photos Headhunter506 posted look like there are exhaust extenders, the rain shield on mantlet, and the front outer road wheel is removed. Are these later changes or is that 121? Is there a book available that has some good pics of 121?
Thanks

Do you want to build 121 with camo, or grey as newly delivered, or grey after the Russians cleaned it off?
There are a few photos; none of them show exhaust extenders.
