Panther restoration (CWM)
Just a note that the Panther tank ,foremerely at CFB Borden,is having quite a bit of work done to it in Ottawa, at the Canadian War Museum. It is in the large garage/shop area, and is visible through some access door windows leading into the main gallery.It is up on supports,and the tracks and some wheels have been removed for work.Also, I was told that the turret had also been removed for restoration work for a time, but it is back in place now.Apparently, the work should be completed by this January, hopefully.I read somewhere that it had been at Kingston originally,where someone had installed a different engine to get it running again.Then it was shifted to CFB Borden, where it has been for a long time.When captured, it was almost new.Anyone else know something about it?
