- Today we get the Jumbo loaded on to a trailer in preparation to drive it out to the dock for shipping. Big thanks to Lumpy's Lowbed Service and Quiring Towing for helping us out.
I'm impressed by the articulation of 75-yr old volute springs and swing arms.
Holy hell it’s Al Quiring from Highway thru Hell. Didn’t know he towed stuff when it wasn’t snowing. Ha ha. That guy is a tow truck master.
Cool.. video...
Love .. that...Sherman Tank
Excellent tow truck driving..!!!
Some of you may recognize the tow truck from a Discovery channel show Highway Thru Hell.
Bit of a beast of a recovery truck :o It shoved that around like it was a wooden mock up :D
That beast is on the show Hells Highway all the time.
Good to see you had one of the best men on the job. BIG AL. If you need something moved. He will get it Done. 🇺🇸👍🚛
Some very good gear and operators in this vid.👍
Nice to see Al Quiring and the green goblin show up. Definitely got the best 👍
Tow truck operator is a real pro
Love Tracer that transporter is well nice!
Hope to see a jumbo on display one day
As soon as I saw that wrecker the green goblin I know it was moving lol
I'm pretty sure that Armourgedon in the UK are also restoring a jumbo. Also a former static target. 🇺🇸🇬🇧
Same tank :)
Saw Sherman’s, APC’s, Jeep’s, and an air force c-47 flare ship shot to pieces by A-7’s & A-10’s on Peason Bombing range in the 70’s & 80’s & what was left was buried in trenches. A strip was made for the C-47 & it was flown in. I watched it heartbroken as it was perforated by thousands of 50 cal, 20 mm & A-10 Vulcan rounds ( engines too!)
Sad to see her go but it’s going to a good home I suppose.
Anyone know what kind of rounds were used to work it over? Looks like 50-cal on the left hand side, but some small caliber rounds penetrated the right hand- doesn't have typical heat-round signature.
THIS IS HELLA KOOL
All the damage on the Sherman is it real battle damage or was it on a firing range somewhere?
Nice Dragon Wagon
You just wonder what the poor things went through feel sorry for it in that state it's like it's been robbed of it's parts after it's been dumped! That one has the 2 drainage holes alot jumbos only had the 1 it's the jumbo I've been researching learning everything about for the past year great they found cobra king too! What is the front greatbox cover of off? Oh on a fireing range what a god damb Shame! You see how they never wasted any time welding under the thicker armour on the side's there must have though it'll hold just enough for as long as it'll last just get it done an back out!
must be a sad day
highway thru hell tv show i seen Quiring Towing on it
Missed where & why the shipping?
It’s in the UK, check out the Armourgeddon channel, loads of work has been done on it.
Take a look here for the Jumbo's restoration project by Amourgeddon in UK - ruclips.net/video/QWnJlLE_5e0/видео.html
@@AndrewPayne So did you guys find and start the restoration and then sell it to Armourgeddon or were you just doing work for them?
Kinda hard to think of "Jumbo" and Sherman in the same sentence. Shermans weren't that big of a tank. And that hulk isn't all that heavy considering it's basically the hull and turret. A lot of big dozers weigh more than that.
Lot of 20mm AP hits
Will we see it again?
I think it went to the UK. Check the Armourgeddon youtube channel.
@@markgould851 thanks for the info! I will have a look 👍
What's the Pete got in it
That is the most bad a$$ Pete I've ever seen paint and trailer wise.
You could be a billionaire in russia. They have yet to figure out how to load and transport tanks yet.
😂
Rip pavement
Too bad no narration, keeps us guessing.
No explanation of what is happening here and why, little disappointed...
I think this Canadian outfit has been restoring it for a while, and have now sold it to another Tank museum/restoration outfit in the UK and you are watching them load it up for the overseas trip.
@@Weptek911 thanks for explanation 😇👍🏻
@@gbjanuary armourggedon in the UK has it now. They have a RUclips channel too. They are working on restoring it. Poor thing was shot up pretty bad!
The old girl has been hit several times
7:30, Mr. Heavy D look-a-like you should think about losing the feelings in your extremities. I say this with all respect. Get into a gym and consider your health food choices. I'm saying this out of care not hatered.
Body shaming is not cool. The man obviously knows his limits, and doesn't need a stranger telling him anything. Besides, can you swear like him? Huh? It is a skill.
@@terrywarner8657 Body shaming is something known only to americans. The rest of the (still sane) world calls that stating out the obvious based on medical reasons. I think he only means the best with that message, dont spin that arround in some politicaly corect crap, it really does not help. Stay healthy!
@@ReLLaXX48 You're welcome. That fellow is in Canada as am I. A random anonymous stranger calling a guy fat who already knows it isn't going to make him change anything. But ... can you drive a very large low-boy truck and trailer? He can, so stick to what you know.
@@terrywarner8657 So, something like, someone is smart, but your dress is pink, so everything is cool. Because f*ck logic. Got it. I see zero connection between a random guy pointing out the medical obvious and someone elses ability to do something. If that guy cuts his life short by 20 years with his diet, do you think his familly will be happy with this as long as he can drive a truck and trailer? Really? This seems logical to you? How?
@@ReLLaXX48 You're confusing issues. I mention that the man has a skill, and you're complaining because I'm standing up for him. When I hire someone to do a job for me, I want production and deliverables. Today I have a crew putting new shingles on my roof. Is it important that the Journeyman's pants are filthy and ripped? Nope, because he is doing a job I can't. Or that the Apprentice's voice is very soft even though he is a big burly guy? No. I am paying them for their muscles and ability. Just like the trucker who drives a very big rig. So, back off and keep an open mind. Skilled tradesmen are getting harder and harder to hire without you shouting insults from the internet.
