We had a neighbour when I was a kid , who rescued a jap tank from the jungle somewhere, renovated it and made it go , was a ton of fun riding in it when he took it over Toole Street Bridge to Kooragang Island and hooning about the marshes and slag dumps and mangroves in it. It was virtually unstoppable.

Bear in mind I was only 9 or 10 at the time and playing soldiers was cool.

I wonder what happened to it ? I have vague memory that a big Newcastle Herald writeup was done about him and his jap tank.
