I would say mount a 37mm gun on that, and you've got yourself a pretty nice system. It has enough room, plus if you put a thin armor coating, you could get it to stop small arms, maybe a 7.62 but I wouldn't count on it. Mostly, I would say it would make a great fire support weapon system.
Lol, it was a Tank Destroyer before called an M56 Scorpion for the U.S military in the 50's. It was originally armed with a big 90mm gun on it. It was made to be light and fast and able to be air dropped from planes. A true..."Tank Hunter" perhaps for it's fast speed and powerful gun.
In 2008 about 30 000 Euro were stolen from my acount. The tax bureau Pforzheim / Neuenbürg, Germany, accepted this money as the property of the thief, without even demanding an income or gift tax. My complaints were ignored claiming fiscal secret. I am aware of large scale tax fraud in the area of Pforzheim. With my experience how German tax bureaus handle stolen property, I believe that this was done in collaboration with the tax bureau Pforzheim as well. In exchange for certain "services".
+KennyG Hansen it says backyard tank, which could mean they think its homemade, which it isnt. I dont see you owning a tank so dont come on here thinking youre so "tough". Get a life.
I wish I had a tank to drive the kids around the yard with :(
Original engine? Also, what hull number is yours? I'm restoring #98 and have another hull using for parts that is amazingly complete.
hull number would be on the front of the lift point right around where the barrel travel lock would pivot on the driver side.
Cool!
