G'day

A couple of shots taken on the way home.

Peter Culley driving one of my matilda's home.

Kind regards
Matt

Default How many operational Matilds are left

Great photos Matt, pardon my ignorance of armored vehicles just how rare are operational Matilds out there? Must be a rare bird.

Cheers

Phil

Default Thanks for posting the link

Hi Matt

Thanks for posting the link, what is kind of strange is that I have actually seen the first four tanks shown in person. Small world.

Cheer Phil
