Omva Spring Militaria & Military Vehicle Parts Marketplace

[Terry Witiuk]

Hello to all MLU Members. Better weather is here and that means that the 2025 MV season has officially begun.

The Ontario Military Vehicle Association (OMVA) Spring Militaria and MV Parts Marketplace is just under two weeks away. With over 40 vendor tables now reserved (mostly MV parts), there are no vendor tables left. We're confident in saying that this may be the best ever OMVA Spring Marketplace in a long time and it's happening at the Canadian Tank Museum in Oshawa, Ontario. See advert below.

Many individual members will be setting up to offer spare parts but well known dealers such as Niagara Military Parts (289-213-9939 or journeayralph@gmail.com) and Willys Acres (705-835-5739 or info@willysacres.com ) will also be there. New to the OMVA scene is Andrew Lee (416-410-9666 or leecic@hotmail.com) who will be offering numerous Iltis parts. Contact these vendors in advance if you're looking for anything specific and pre-arrange delivery to the marketplace. If you're not looking for military vehicle parts, come out anyways, support the museum and appreciate the great display of vehicles.

Although 2025 marks the 80th Anniversary of VE Day, this wouldn't have happened without D-Day. We're glad to share the news that Joe Wilson of D-Day Wear has joined the ranks of the OMVA and will be offering D-Day Wear clothing and hats for sale at our Marketplace. Joe and D-Day Wear have donated over $100k over the years to Veteran and First Responders suffering with P.T.S.D. and we welcome them to the OMVA.

SUPPORT THE VENDORS WHO SUPPORT THE OMVA AND THE CANADIAN TANK MUSEUM!

If you're an OMVA Member, admission to the museum and our marketplace is free that day. Again, check the attached Marketplace advert for details. All paid admissions go back to the Museum and not the OMVA.

Looking forward to it. Hope to see lots of people out.

Thanks to those who have organized it.
