Default soviet missile old thread question!

can anyone remember a long thread on here about 10+ years ago about some bods who found and recovered a soviet ICBM!!!!

they were travelling through Germany (the old eastern part) and stopped by an old warehouse, looked inside and found an ICBM (no warhead). they went back with a big wagon, collected it and brought it home and there was a picture of it stood in thier workshop.

the thread discussed the complications of explaining to the various border guards about where they got it from, who owned it etc.

i recall reviewing the thread 4-5 years ago and many of the juicy bits had been taken out (possibly legal issues) but cant find it at all now.

just asked Stu at MSD who cant recall it at all and also with his additional admin powers couldn't find any deleted stuff referring to it so maybe it was on a different forum or ive imaged the whole thing!!

any info appreciated
