If I remember right the BTR-60 had a really interesting design feature where they had fuel tanks in the crew exit doors in the back, so when your getting into position there's a gas tank acting as your exit.

You think if I would convert that missle container into an extra fuel tank, that I'd be able to drive the 7 kms to work on one tank of fuel?

There are so many possibilities. You can also use it as a giant Thule, and carry all sorts of useful things in it...

I am pretty sure no one but the wierdo goth girls want to sleep with a guy who drives decommissioned, Soviet-era military equipment to school.

I'd say dad's Porsche or Ferrari would drop more panties than an old soviet tank
