[parkerbink]

Happy to oblige

Description:
This brand new car was run over by an Abrams M1A2 Tank. The tank was taken out of it's shed in the morning and a "No Parking Area" was set-up where the tank would be driving. Unfortunately this area didn't include the area immediately in front of the tank shed. The owner of the RX-8 returned from lunch parking in his usual spot, and went back to work. When the tank was being driven back to the shed the spotter failed to alert the tank driver that he was backing up into the car.

The tank just skimmed along the side of the car and ripped off the side until the tank climbed the fender and crushed the engine. The car was written off after a strange phone call to the owners insurance company and 3 unbelieving supervisors. The tank sustained a dime sized chip on its paint, that may or may not have been there to begin with.

Location:
Ottawa, Canada

M1 weighs 60-69 tons depending on model, and that's all it did? I'm calling bullshit, unless Canadian M1s are made of styrofoam or something[/b]

I think that the caption is calling it bullshit also. The strange call, the 3 unbelieveing supervisors, obviously something was up. I think it would have crushed the wheel at least.

I think this one is better

I believe. Look at those scratch lines in the rear door. What else would leave perfectly spaced scuffs like that. Tank tracks. I also couldn't visualize too many vehicles that could compress the chassis to the point that car is at.

Thats not the one you posted. The other one did have a caption.

[parkerbink]

The police car is a different series & has no caption but looks like it was run over by a tank, it was a joke..... I guess if you have to explain it was not a good joke. Sorry

I find it hard to believe that the front right tire wouldn't at least blow out with 60+ tons sitting on it, but whatever. :?

That's not an M3...good story regardless.

How can you tell it's not blown? It doesn't look like the tank rolled completely over the front of the car. Just rolled up to and then into it before coming to a stop.
