    WTH, Found a tank today.

    BTW Guys, that was a joke that didn't pan out. Tank still belongs to Uncle Sam. I'll try to see if I can find those interior pictures for you guys.

    WTH, Found a tank today.

    Well after a little misdirection on my part, the tank was actually privately owned by the museum. I have managed to broker a deal for the sale of the tank. The final price has been deemed by contract to be undisclosed, so don't ask. I will note that my commission for the work I did on the back...

    Please stop sending me private messages to purchase the tank. It belongs to the United States government. It is not for sale.

    Some of you guys can't read. The tank belongs to the Feds. It is assigned to the local museum. Please quit PMing me trying to arrange a purchase. aua

    I don't think they've made any progress, but I need to finish looking at the museum soon, so I'll ask then.

    When it gets to be warmer and nicer weather I'll ask the museum guy if he has or can have a place ready to display it. If he does, I'll see if he wants to have a tank moving party.

    I can get you the VIN Carnac, but this one belongs to Uncle Sam.

    LOL, If there really is interest in a mini-rally to move the tank, I will go discuss it with the museum, and make sure they have a location ready etc. If they have or can have, and would like the help, we can sure have a mini rally here. Some good spots around for camping. Just better not be...

    WTH, Found a tank today.

    I don't think they are ready to just jump up and do it, but when I go back to see the rest of the museum, I will mention we have people willing to help. They don't have a lot of money. The museum itself though, was pretty awesome. I'm definitely going back to see it more in depth. How would...

    The local guard unit came by and used a HEMTT to drag it around a bit. He's tried to get them back, but they won't come.

    It can be towed, however, the biggest problem with that is STOPPING it. I'm sure that could be overcome.

    WTH, Found a tank today.

    Well everyone. I have the story. And pics of inside the turret when my wife gets back with the camera cable. It belongs the the local military museum. It's currently where it's at because they can't find a way to get it moved. Needs to go about a mile if anyone wants to help :) They had a guy...

    The good camera battery is charging.... Lord, give me the guts to climb down the turret, the luck to make it in and out without breaking a leg, and let anyone that sees me be a poor shot.

    Dude, I ask this question all the time when I see other peoples stuff they find. This time, it just happened to be me. I feel all special :)

    WTH, Found a tank today.

    When I get the skinny on it all, I'll post it up. I doubt I'll have the money to save it unless we can do some kind of group. If I can't do it, I want it to go to someone who can. I just hope that if it IS legit, that it doesn't belong to one of those A-holes who would rather let it rot than...
