Rat Rod Tank

Seeing a tank isn’t something too out of the ordinary, but spotting a homemade “Rat Rod Tank” definitely is. This basically involves installing tracks on an old vehicle by chopping the chassis down to make it sit lower.

Make sure to shed off most of its armor, or else you’ll end up with a vehicle that moves at a snail’s pace. Continue reading for another video and more information.

“For the engine you might as well leave the standard Ford V8 that comes with the Carrier, although you’ll have to roll using only 85-horsepower. Not sure if the guy in the video here used the same one, but it does sound awesome,” reports Auto Evolution.
