The "Lieutenant Weasel" monster tank was built in 1989 by utilizing a 1945 Bren Gun Carrier chassis that was originally built by FOMOCO (Ford Motor Company).
The Weasel was used from 1990 through 1992 for car crushing exhibitions during the Southwest Truck Pulling events. The Weasel has been revived and is starting to make appearances throughout Arizona. The original tank from FOMOCO was powered by a flathead V-8 with 85 HP and a 4-speed manual transmission that carried a .303 Bren machine gun and a .55 caliber anti-tank rifle. The tank was used as a scout vehicle during World War II. It has now been modified with a 600 HP Ford FE V-8 and a C-6 automatic transmission. |
