Most of what's left of a huge Tiger Joe motorized toy tank from the 1960s. Many details missing like the metal gun barrel and the battery box. Added a slot car motor and jury-rigged it into the transmission gearbox. Quite noisy in operation. Just pulled it from storage this weekend to clean it up for possible use in a video.

Interesting! I seem to remember a "Cousin" having what was called a "Tiger" tank that was similar, but it had features such as an accompanying safety tipped dart gun, and if the tank was hit in the right spot, the motor would stop, and a "Commander" would pop out of a hatch with arms raised overhead in "Surrender."
Of course, my memories of that time are hazy with nostalgia. I do recall the Christmas Catalogs of the 1960s looking like a veritable Armory of toy weapons, including several downsized, and realistic looking rifles.
