Corrugated iron tank

01Apr08

Ah New Zealand, land of corrugated iron. Once we even had our own corrugated iron tank, actually three Semple tanks were built before it was discovered that they had a top speed of minus 5 inches an hour. It turned out that bunging a corrugated iron shell on top of a tractor chassis just wasn’t going to cut it in WWII.
