Me too. Does anyone know by chance what big 6x6 trucks were used in Sniper2
and you see a few in the James Bond movie Golden eye? I guess they are
Russian. I'm thinking I saw the name Bran on the front of one. Also what
tank was used in the movie Golden eye that Bond is smashing around? Is it a
T55 or T72?
Thanks
Brian
