Geek Builds His Own Panzer Tank

Posted in car tech, distractions, diy, youtube on Apr 11, 2008

Check out this dude that made his own Panzer tank in college! It’s half scale, and so bloody scary that when he drove it down his parents street for fun the neighbors called the cops thinking it was WWIII or something! It runs on an old diesel generator motor, and the turret and canon actually work – shooting both paintballs and empty red bull cans (powered by a Co2 container in the rear). Who wouldn’t kill to have their own working tank? Maybe it was the geek in my, but I thought this was really cool!
