Hi Mike,
Having done some research on this tank at the time, as you will remember, I was a bit puzzled that the owner wanted it painted to represent Northern France theatre 1939-40, especially having found photos of the actual vehicle in training in Vic. At least it has its correct numbers on it.
Out of the 10 tanks that went to Australia, 5 are known to still exist in some form or another (that includes Colin's!)
regards, Richard
