Panther restoration (CWM)

[Colin Macgregor Stevens]

Ram ARV: Hanno - I do not know the details of the proposed arrangement. I doubt that Mr. Littlefield would offer someone else's vehicle unless he felt he could acquire it.

Ram - We had heard a rumour of a Ram tank buried in BC but an eyewitness has been found and they said it was a stripped down Sherman hull. The army is working aith a group to possibly salvage it and trade it for parts the army needs for a Sherman restoration.

When the Canadian War Museum was still in Vimy House, Jim Whitham was working on their Ram to try to get it restored ... but he is just one man (with a bit of volunteer help) so he is grossly overloaded, understaffed and underfunded.

We have a Ram tank in Vancouver, BC in front of the Beatty Street Drill Hall (which is right beside Stadium SkyTrain station for anyone visiting Vancouver - and there is a Sherman there too)
