MOTAT Museum in Auckland

1 Attachment(s)

I visited yesterday the famous Museum of Transport and Technology in Auckland, or shortly MOTAT. It's the biggest one of its kind in NZ.

Unfortunately, the mililtary section is only open on certain days. But they took an AEC Matador with Gun to a Gunshow. Was luckily to speak with the driver and could even have a look in the Barn.

Very familiar looking shearing tool, isn't it Max? And this one is in the Museum as well ;-)

3.7 inch gun or so. The driver told me much more powerful than the German 88

Correct, it's a Wiles Cooker.

Have fun and keep those pictures coming!
