    Thank you for sharing this bit of fun. I grew up hearing that sound and to this day, I still love the sound of a Chieftain tank. Keep up the awesome work guys. 😁

    The old girl is looking/sounding great! Can't wait to see what's been happening at the shop.
    It would be cool if by chance you could get "The Chieftain" (aka Nicholas Moran)to ride this Chieftain one day. That would make a great video.
    So when's the Armored Pub Crawl going to happen next year?

    WELCOME BACK GUYS WE MISSED YOU !!!
    I'm guessing that was on the second day as you didn't have much luck with the old girl when she broke down
    It was great to meet all the guys there ( shame we didn't get to meet you Matt )
    Oh and thank the guys for finding my baseball cap I dropped in one of your Vehicles ... yep that was me !!!
    Hope to see you guys soon !!

    Love a Chieftain, obviously, but like the Thorneycroft Nubian Major too, with its V8 Cummins and water jet😊

    great idea having the extra fuel tanks on the back to halt any debris getting caught up in the track (ok so it did) and then flying round over the top of the turret (fortunately that didn't happen)
    i've heard of it happening and folk getting injured - and i have seen for myself how far debris can be thrown, the display track at the old Hop Farm at Paddock Wood some years back was around fifty feet from the wooden fence and crowd line, a door got caught for some time at the rear, the tank turned and the door flew round, hurled itself in the direction of the crowd fortunately stopping at the fence (imagine if had been just mine tape and kiddies in the front row) i think the chap in the cupola was a little shocked too as it flew past missing him (very very lucky)
    car crushing is great fun for both tank and the crowd, at least until it all goes pair shaped - for safeties sake its best not to have people on the turret, or at least having somewhere to dive and take cover while watching where the debris is going
    great video Matt and good to see you, i mean thee back, mucker - winter is here and i guess little going on int workshop, i mean play pen, looking forward to some newish stuff

    Huh? that Morris, from a glance, looked like it was in the process of being restored, I didn't even notice any real rust from a glance, even the wheels looked pretty shiny, I honestly don't understand why you didn't just, yk, sell it? was there any real reason to do this, though?
    I'm sorry, it's just stuff like this does my head in, crush perfectly good or even restorable cars, and make up laughable excuses as to why they decided to this instead.

    • @fittermat

      It was advertised for weeks before it was sent for scrap, nobody wanted it and we got it after it had been legally scrapped so couldn’t go on the road ever again
