Thanks for the peak in and around the T34/85; it was really cool, though all that I could wonder was where everything ended up that they stripped out of the insides. And that this really needed a sand blaster to clean it up properly. Love seeing old tanks like this!

You are welcome Thanks for watching the video. Yeah, somebody stripped the tank inside as well. As far as I know, the tank won't be restored. Still the pics and video may give some ideas and knowledge when it comes to the inner dimensions and the tank poportions. Cheers.

Thanks for the video Piotr, very interesting to see that the welds do not rust... something known but often forgotten!
Also there is no rust on cables either.

I think that the welds are rather new. And as far as I know, the areas of welding, if not protected properly start to rust quickly, but perhaps somebody can tell us more about it...
