Possibly one of the coolest things I've seen built lately, and I build Rockcrawler 4x4's with a good friend!

It's for sale on Ebay for $31,000.00, that's how I found the link for it.

Huh.......when I get down on building I play more guitar, usually find something I think I'm missing and build again to solve that problem........or go cruising in an old car, but with winter in full swing I guess it's time to find something to build.......

Did you click on the you tube link Flames?

I thought it was quite amazing the amount of engineering that went into building the project in the video.

It's powered by a 350 Chevy does that help? LOL!

there is something wrong with that guy!!

being a firearms enthusiast....just in case someone is wanting to buy a tank, you
can actually purchase real ones. in fact, for less. BUT you gotta get it shipped here. mostlly from the "former" soviet states and russia.

OK, you busted me. I was shooting from the hip that day.

And I'm the sicko that hot rods Chevy straight sixes anyway -- pre-'62 please.

I've been fascinated by military vehicles since I was a kid, tanks especially. Here's the closest I have come to having one: A friend and I built this over the last two years for fun and we went with the AREA 51 USAF theme and took it to a car show in September. It has a 350 chevy engine, Ford 9 inch, Dana 44, and other fun stuff, yep that is a 1972 Ford Torino GT scoop on the hood, why? because it was in my buddy's garage for 20 years, LOL

Yeah but can you park it in your two car garage? LOL!

I'm sure the neighbors love seeing that thing cruising down the road! Hopefully there aren't any WWII survivors near where he lives! I doubt they would appreciate seeing an Iron Cross Tiger even if it was a replica, they might even try to blow it up!

Bloody hell. It never even occured to me that it was possible to build a tank yourself, now I HAVE seen everything!

My next DIY project will be building a Ford GT40, I thought that was pretty ambitious, but now feel like I've been pwned...
