Looks like it could have made for a good  "Chop, Cut, Rebuild" episode.

That engine is really cool! If you think Charger parts are expensive then try buying 1 1/2" plate to repair your tank.

Sarcasm detector, that's a real good invention.

I think the paper said tonight's episode of Red Green is about restoring a tank.  Now I'll have to check it out.  I wonder if it's the same type of tank, and how much armor protection is in a roll of duct tape.

Yeah Paul, I wanted to go but I hate to go alone and my bride has no interest in seeing him.  She doesn't understand why I watch him when I can.  Sort of like British humor but with a plot line.  It's gotta be a guy thing.

What a tremendous restoration.  I wonder how much $$$ he spent doing this.  He did say it took him about 4000 hours to do it.  Ya gotta see it.
