Hi all,
Well the title pretty much says it all. I started my DML 3 in 1initial Tiger kit. Eventually it will go in a dio, and I will have the engine bay open, with a crew working on it. (I used the engine kit from Tamiya) The Tamiya engine lacks some detail that I want to improve on. Anybody out there have any pics-real, or from a model-showing the engine bay? Anything that would show fuel lines, wires, and hoses would be a huge help.
Thanks a bunch,
Brian

btw-what a great kit so far!!

Okay just a nit-pick here but I think those pictures are probably posted in violation of coprywrite laws as I know for a fact they come from the Bovington Tiger rebuild. They are copywrited to the tiger museum which does not release them to any other internet sites. You can find more and better ones at the tiger museum website and a lot of info at tiger1.
