    M149a2 water buffalo leaking. Need ideas

    It's the stainless one. Looks to be leaking around the drain plug boss in the bottom. Seems to have some kind of sealer on it. Nothing in the TM addresses it. Is it caulked in or was this some kind of half ass repair ? It's leaking where the boss meets the tank not the plug to boss.

    M49 worth keeping a tank on ?

    Picked up an M49 tanker. Debating whether to fix it up and keep a tanker or find a bed or just cut it up. Do the tankers have any decent resale value ? Or should I just put a cargo bed on and scrap the tank ?
