Hey oz, I stumbled across that little fella being unloaded at War & Peace a few years ago. Video isnt great but it shows the scale of the beast ;)

thats a nice bit of video it really does show off the size of the beast, what gets me is that it sat on the ranges for so long without anyone realizing what it was, i guess the modern military don't know much about historic armored vehicles!! glad someone does otherwise we would have to be content with a few pics of another shot up rusted relic :think:

cheers oz.
