Posted December 27, 201311 yr comment_438582 I am not a collector but do love my cars. I of course have my restored, original owner 1972 Z and am in the process of restoring a 1972 FJ40. I know that we have many members on this site which qualify as collectors with multiple examples of Z cars. Well I stopped by a friends the other day and took a look at his collection and........ He has a great collection of tanks from all over the world including one captured in the 6 day war and one from the battle of the bulge. His latest edition is a 63 ton giant waiting for shipment in Liverpool, England. All of his tanks are in great fully working condition.

December 27, 201311 yr comment_438584 One of those would have really helped in dealing with the Christmas shopping frenzy. Any parking spot is yours regardless of what was already parked there. Interesting picture and wow what an unusual thing to collect. Did you see any battle damage on any of the tanks?

The 6 day war tank has damage from being hit from fighter jet gun fire etc.. The battle of the bulge tank has some damage.
