It is one of the Rams that have been at mine. We did the repairs including a new section of lower hull, bulkhead, propshaft tunnel, wings etc. The restoration was carried out by C&C Military Services.

With the Aust $ the way it is, it is about time that you all came down to visit, there is this Museum, the Corowa Military Vehicle rally/gathering is on in March, there is the Aust War Memorial in Canberra and several other collections and people of interest....

Look forward to seeing you all...

Well that sure is some nice work, I have had the pleasure of seeing the Sherman Carl restored for Paul Allen...top notch to say the least...how many more Kangaroos do you have kicking around Adrian?

I did a lot of work on that Sherman too..... Carl and his team do good work and have taken on some difficult projects.

I have another Ram here, it was a gun tower though, not a kangaroo.

Sorry Adrian, Carl had told me you did a lot of work on the Paul Allen tank as well, did not mean to slight you
