A possible Tank build?

[hill160881]

I picked this up for $100 bucks and if i can get it to run then i think i will have to turn it into a tank. It is quite likley i will be able to get it to run. The 2 cyl kohler gas engine turns over and has compression. It ran 2 years ago so it looks good. Its a 1976 bobcat
Any Thoughts?

A side-mounted, quick release system for your mini gun mag is a must.

I was thinking a flame thrower as well.

A $100! Thats fantastic. Keep us posted.

i could really use one of those for pushing snow around and misc. work around the yard, wish i could find one for 100 bucks. thats crazy. I can see that thing being a mini tank. mesh the sides of the cage. nice

Its so old i dont think it would hold up to much hard work, but it mite last years more as a tank.

I will decide when i get it running.

Might be able to convert the front loader into a platform with the minigun mounted on it. Then you'd be able to raise the platform for longer distance shooting and shooting over obstructions.

Also don't forget to make it an Anti-tank as well, by mounting a rocket launcher on it somewhere. That way you can take out other tanks. It'd be a mini-panzer.

Since it already uses the steering much the same as a real tank how hard would it be to put treads on it or would that be to expensive for this tank?

[hill160881]

Depends on the cost. I am just hopping to get it going this weekend so i can decide if it is going to be scrap metal or a tank.
