C15TA Register

[Ian Johns]

Hi Guys
Andre's truck is finished, amazing job if I might add. I spoke to him just before Christmas and as far as I know he will be down next month. I'll be speaking with him soon so if that changes I will post it.

Photos to come...

James,

The first ex-Greek Army survivor belongs now to a private collection, waiting restoration... (for how long? )

The second survivor belongs to the Tank Museum of the Greek Army's Tank Training Center, located north of Athens. Sits under the trees in open weather and in poor condition..
I'm ashamed for that and I can't show you more photos

I am helping our very famous surviving panzers creator with the C15TA and armored command vehicles, can everyone check the list and see if there are any other vehicles we are missing or have on updates..

Please see the link and let me know of any additions or subtractions.

Andre passed away a year ago. Does anyone know what happened to his collection?

Only pictures missing from the current URL http://www.mapleleafup.nl/cmpvehicles/c15ta_reg.html are the ones that linked to the old mapleleafup.org domain (which also moved) and can now be found on http://www.mapleleafup.net/vehicles/...our/c15ta.html.

As for a missing picture of Leegwater's C15TA, ask Barry Churcher, he owns it now.

Other entries have a caption [picture currently not available], will see if I can get pictures.

HTH,

After passing away, Andre Gibault donated his C15TA to the CWM - see this video of it standing next to the ex-Marchant C15TAA Z5822762

Where is it now? Stephen Latheron (RIP) wrote on Maple Leaf Up Forum in 2009:

The pics show bits of what looks like gearbox laid in rear floor.
The vehicle was rescued for restoration I believe and rumoured to have found its way initially to a collector on the south coast of UK.
Be interested to hear who owns it now.
