Hi everyone.

I was scrolling through the tanks listed on the Tiger1.info Web site dedicated to the initial production Tigers of Pz.Abt. 501.

Tiger 813 has two pictures that seem to indicate both of its rear fenders are missing. The information on this tank also states it had custom tool placements on its glacis plate, early style front fenders and was missing its right side smoke grenade launchers.

Does anyone know of or have any other pictures of this tank? All I can find are two from after the Battle of Hunt's Gap and they are both from the rear.

Thank you and be well?

They know of only 2 photos at TIIF.DE. I don't think you'll find more anywhere else, as those guys are usually the first to identify a photo.

You said you had two photos from the rear? Have you got one that's not listed on my page?
