Tiger I 114 needs your help to run again
Hello tankers,

The French Museum "Musée des blindés", which owns the only running and driving Tiger II, want to restore its Tiger 1.
The goal is to make it run and drive like their Tiger II. They started a donation campaign right here https://fr.ulule.com/restauration-tigre-1/

This Tiger I 114, saw action in the falaise Pocket, Normandy, and tried to escape from it with 2 other Tigers. First one escaped, but second one was knocked out, and 114 crashed into it at full speed. It was then used by the French against German pockets, and it even went to occupy Germany until 1946. It was the last Tiger in the world to see active service !

After its service, it was studied and put into storage in 1955. Its engine never ran since that year.
The musée des blindés eventually acquired it.

They need AT LEAST 150 000 euros to make it run again, and after a week we're at 45 000. It's good, but far from enough.

So if you can, give some money to preserve one of the 6 complete Tigers ! Also i should mention that 114 is the MOST ORIGINAL Tiger in the world, engine, gearbox... everything belongs to this particular Tiger, and was not added later using wrecked Tigers.

Many thanks
