I want a Sherman Tank

[goarmy979]

i have a tank in my bigass backyard but im not sure what the hell it is it looks like a sherman but its not a sherman and i had so many people get mad at me for not restoring it they even offered me a good amount of cash but my dad wont sell it becouse my little brother and his friends like to climb on it and stuff like that but i can make a video if you want to see it i just have to find a camera lol

[agwrangler]

@goarmy979 yeah man, show me some vids or pictures!

[goarmy979]

@agwrangler i had some one already look at it and he said that he thinks its a firefly tank becouse its got the gun he said and i looke it up and it looks exactly like it but is it rare to find a firefly

[agwrangler]

@goarmy979 well man, if you can email me some pictures, i can definitely let you know what it is. Rebel_ag05@yahoo.com Thanks man!

[ArcticRain]

@goarmy979 If it really IS a Sherman firefly, it's worth more than the property it's sitting on. Do something about it.

[JPacheco91]

Is it legal in america do own a tank?!

[agwrangler]

@JPacheco91 yes, it surely is. :)

[KingMopar7]

Amazing that they can still find parts, such as gaskets and seals, for these old tanks.

[earniemanson]

what the fuck you dont free spin a dry bearing like mr moron did at 5:43 in the vid

[agwrangler]

@earniemanson The bearing is being spun to ensure there is no debris or catches in the bearing before we pack it with grease. This type of bearing will not be damaged in any way by spinning it for this reason for a short amount of time.

Bravo! Finish the restoration or not?

[Agomongo1235]

it is very to replace engines because it is car engines lol

[agwrangler]

@Agomongo1235 it is surely NOT easy to find the engine for this tank. There isn't a car that I know of that hasan 1,100 cbuic inch GAA inside.......

[Agomongo1235]

@agwrangler i know it was a joke but in real life shermans did run on car engine

[agwrangler]

@Agomongo1235 No they didnt. The engine in this tank is the original. Its a GAA, which is not found in cars. The other type of engines they used in shermans were radial (airplane) engines, or detroit diesel engines. You ARE correct that some tanks did run on smaller cadillac engines, like the Stuart and the Chaffee, but not the Sherman.

@ the 3:00 Mark, it looks like He's Opening Up a Shuarma Meal!

Jummy

[TankDude]

Nice job guys, always nice to see sherman fans, greetings from Belgium!

[ODDBALL2210]

Aber die Jungs haben leider keine Ahnung von Metall. Wie kann ich mit einem Fäustel auf den Ring aus Edelstahl kloppen???????????

[agwrangler]

@ODDBALL2210 KLOPPEN!!!!

[spideytank]

[ThePanzerWarMachine]

You Gotta A Stug in Kentucky?
