That is awesome. My wife is an engineer who designs tanks.

I work for VW and get a company car, but for some reason they don't give her a tank to bring home!?!

Snap did my H license in a 432 but as I was in the REME I drove the 434 recovery varient, good times   Dont miss track bashing though  

Track bashing was the worst job in the world !! Blood, sweat and not so many tears cos we were butch !

Me to!, passed my  'H' in 1982 , 1st Armd Div Sig regt Verden. Don't miss changing the pack every exercise, usually the heat exchanger!! Andy77- i used to hang out with the REME lads in the 434, cosy in there with the Bedford canopy over the pack bay.

half of the inside has been ripped out and alot of the radio gear is now out, needs a good clean up mainly inside.
get some right looks as people drive by it
