Looking for FV432

[Robin Craig]

Sadly the 432 with the Peak Engineering turret at Connaught Ranges is a bit of a sore point with me.

It is owned by the Canadian War Museum.

The range doesnt want it as a monument. It WAS a runner having been made a tidy vehicle before being handed over to CWM a number of years ago. I saw it at that time.

It is missing scopes etc as of last year when I went to view it it was on the downhill slope quite significantly. It was at the end of the yard and had become part of the snow bank the previous winter when I was there.

It potentially could be a runner again but only if CWM will do a trade for it. CWM was offered a Canadian Ferret fully done up as a monument as a straight swap but said no.

Yet again, an unloved vehicle being slowly absorbed back by nature.
