I'm moving continents, far too many developer tanks.

I'd guess 50 or 60 possibly more.

A lot of early Paterson tanks, but mostly I think Series 3, they are excellent for E6 as they are smaller than more modern tanks and use far less chemistry. I used them in E3/4 days.

Free you pay shipping/postage.

I'm giving away free or I'd post on the classified.

A friend of mine has a tank museum..... But not for the sort of tanks you're talking about.

I think Sean started such a museum a few years ago--

(there was a url link here which no longer exists)

By now he probably has kids lined up down the block to get in and see all the old developing tanks, and he's making a bundle off the admission fees.

My friend has been on a couple of episodes of 'Tank Overhaul'. In the eposode I have seen he has two damaged Sherman tanks. One damaged at the back, the other at the front. He cut them in half (1.5" thick steel) and welded them together (he is a specialist welder by profession).

He also has a Comet so it may have been him you saw.

perhaps someone else can steer this thread back on course after I have hijacked it!
