I remember the first time I saw Saving Private Ryan in a theater with the huge sound system....and that scene where the Tiger tank (believe it was a King Tiger) was rumbling down the street. I about shite myself.

I remember that scene. That was a a old Soviet T-34 modified for the movie to be a Tiger I. They did a good job overall in making a T-34 into a Tiger I. But if you look closely at the front of the hull, the road wheels, and the tracks, you can tell it’s a T-34 modified into appearing to to be a Tiger I.
