Other cars I have known

Postby 10bucks » Mon Jun 14, 2010 5:36 am

Believe it or not this is one of my past rides. This is in the Point Alpha ( outpost alpha to us) Museum on the old east German border at Rasdorf Germany. Since I spent over 5 months of my life in this particular compound overlooking the border, it's strange to me that something I had to do with is a museum now. I've been back to this place three times since the border came down in 89. Anyway back to the tank. It's an M-60A3 wearing bumper numbers 1/11ACR (1st squadron/ 11th Armored Cavalry Regiment) and D21 (D company, 2nd platoon tank # 2 as in 0,1,2,3etc) The tank comander and crew of D-21 were all personal friends of mine. I rode and wrenched on this tank a good bit. I know this because this and the previous D-21 were Both M-60A3's and the subsequent D-21 was an M-1 Abrams.

Here are some pics of My 76 Kawi KZ900 The first one still has the lightning bolts airbrushed on the Tank and Side shields. Some how looked out of place with the new fairing so I wet sanded them and made it simple Black on Charcoal metalic.

I think I speak for a lot of us when I say that I enjoy looking at, and hearing about, any other cool/neat ride that the various forum members have owned.

The tank is awesome btw....and I can relate. I spent 2 years at Clark Air Base in the Phillippines and it's now pretty much abandoned. The Military Working Dog facility that we took such meticulously good care of is now in a shambles.
