Looks like something Crazy_C should have strapped to the top of his Volvo.

To think I have crashed and smashed over 50 of these :lol:

I could probably "borrow" 100 before any one noticed :shock:

In the back of your newly working prelude with new purple wheels! 8-)

I did work on these for a good few years, if any one is serious about using one for something interesting there's alot of structure internally that will need removing and they are actually compartmented internally. 2 of the bulkheads are actually used to hold the tank together.

On lad seriously wanted to turn one into a submarine :lol:

If you want more info I can go full geek mode
