Keith - get yourself a copy of    Germany's Tiger Tanks   VK45.02 to Tiger II: Design, Production & Modifications by Thomas L. Jentz & Hilary L. Doyle.   It's a Schiffer Military History Book.  It has a lot of measurements in the back of the book that you can scale out to what you need.  I am using this book as well as a 1/35 scale Tamiya model to get the measurements for the 1/10 King Tiger I am building.  I compared the book measurements to the Tamiya model and the model is right on the numbers, so I use a good set of calipers and spend a lot of time measuring parts on the model.

 

You can see my King Tiger model at:
