Default Army museum?

Shaun,
Was that carrier the one that was in the National Army museum at Beverley?

Regards

Barry


P.s Spent two hours today in the rain searching some woods for the remains of a carrier or mil vehicle. Found nothing. Why do we do this?

Yes Barry, a lot of the old Beverly collection has been thined out to different museum , the NAM hold a small selection of vehicles at a secure store facilaty.

Richard, we do every thing to do with Weapons - Artillery- soft skin vehicles - Armour. We move them, build displays, value, repair , , deactivate, restore, write condition reports , dispose of and find eqipment as well as broker deals for museums.

It beats going to work for a living.

Keep looking Barry - its out there somewhere !
