First quick look with Steve to see if Oz armour and Artillery museum can get their Sentinel tank running.

This is such an interesting tank, they should make every effort to get it running. They could even buy brand new rebuilt Cadillac engines from the US and all the gaskets and rebuild kits for the carbs, etc. but where’s the fun in that for these guys?
A quick search reveals several models in 1/35, a Commander’s Models kit in resin (Hrrmmm - not too confident of this one) for $132 and some 3 D ones in the $180 range. A bit out of my budget at this time. Still very interested in the tank, though. Cool vehicle.
The Ozzies experimented with sticking a 17lb in this thing, to test the recoil they fitted it with twin 25lb in the turret. Even though it was a test fitting that would scare the bejesus out of anyone facing it or even operating it come to think of it.

Those indeed look awesome. And scary to the receivers!
