Default More Tank Overhauls last nite

Hi

Saw the Sherman restoration at the Isle of Wight Military Museum and the next episode was an M18 Hellcat by the crew in Tooele Utah.

Very interesting stuff. The welding of two Sherman halves together was a treat to watch and listen to. The laser cutting of replacement Hellcat parts done in a CAD/CAM computer program was something most cannot access

Of note is the common theme in some of these these restoration sponsors: "Mr X is very wealthy!!"

Still good viewing, in any case. More on tonite!!

regards
Darrell
