And then they mentioned to me former family member/foreclosure, "TANK IN THE BACK YARD" yada yada yada....?
So with a grain of salt taken (I've heard crazy stuff from people at displays) I ask "where is this "Tank" and what is the address???
So after the Show/display a buddy of mine and I go looking for the mythical "tank in the back yard"
After searching the neighborhood and attracting the attention of most of the residents in the area we are about to give up. And I said "lets try this side street that goes behind the area maybe well see something. And as we are driving down the dirt street, There It Was..... And we both stated "HOLY SH%T"!!!!! It was not a tank but close..... An M-20 armored car.
So after finding out who the property owners were, getting contact information, phone calls, phone time and closing the deal yesterday. I'm now the owner of a M-20 Armored Car. It's a restoration project, stuff added needs to be removed, stuff removed needs to be reattached or welded into place and things have to be rebuilt. And at one time 1968 this was registered for on road use in NC.
But the next mission is the recovery. I'll take lots of pictures and film the process.
So if any of you have M-20/M-8 parts stashed away somewhere or know someone that does point them in my direction cause I need them.
Looks like the MB/jeep project gets pushed to the back burner (again) as the M20 has priority.
