Last July i found a Cobra Viper in my backyard that has been buried since 1986 / 87.
here is the original thread. http://www.hisstank.com/forum/g-i-jo...bra-viper.html Recently i was able to drill out the old screws which were covered in dirt deposits that were impossible to break through. drilling out the screws did crack the legs a tad, but i was able to super glue the cracks so its a-ok now. today i assembled him, so for the first time in 23 years.. my cobra viper is assembled again. here are the pictures |

Looks great for spending 20+ years under ground.

Neat, I had a similar find with a Night Raven Drone while digging post holes. A spider had built a nice nest in it.
