joeferret Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 just popping down the garage luv, i took these shots on one of the many imps road runs from radnor park in folkstone, on this occaision rod cadman decided to join us with his sherman tank. Near rod and rexs home they were building a new by_pass and rod passed his track laying licence on a cat d8, nearly at the end of the road run the sherman was decididly short of petrol so rod drove the tank straight onto the forecourt, the mayhem this caused was hilarious, the manager thought the tank was going to disappear below ground, but all went well and we continued on to the pub, hope of interest, tony g. awesome!!!!!!!!!

ajmac Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Interesting old video, does anyone know where those running multibank Fireflies are now? I am guessing that the Belgian Tank museum may have one of them as they have a running Sherman Vc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
