They built 2 of these for a film and are now offering one of them for sale around 450,000 Euro, and if you have deep pockets will build for you. New made tracks.

What tank did the final drives come off?

The idler is definatley modified t54-55.

And the tracks were they reproduced or originals?

Default Tiger replica

This sure confirms that it is quite feasible to do a replica. On a Tiger I, the toughest thing is the suspension and tracks, but these people did an admirable job of trying to duplicate that. Would be something to do one for the War Museum in Ottawa, but it would have to be dead accurate to be worth doing. I think there is another Tiger I replica in Europe somewhere, made of steel plate also, and fairly accurate, as I saw a video of it on track-link.net site, and I don' t mean the T-34 ones from Kelly' s Heroes. Not much info on that one,but it exists
