Well he's been building dummy tanks for the government out of his brand new manufacturing plant in Gastonia, NC. Where they're going is a mystery?

The Allies used dummy tanks to mislead the Germans during Operation Overlord on June 6, 1944.
But they weren’t nearly as detailed as those being built by Gilbertson’s company.
It makes me nervous thinking about the possible intended use of these latest versions.

I wonder why they are the color of desert sand.

I think it's safe to say that reconnaissance measures has vastly improved over the last 75+ years. LOL
 
Gilby used to make components for Stewart & Stevenson (military supplier)...maybe he stepped to the next level?
 
Gilby has a few military contracts along with his air tank business He also builds fuel tanks for both the military and commercial truck builders. Trick Tank is just a side business for the racing industry. I wouldn't be surprised if he shows up at a drag race sometime in the near future.
