The tank sold for $500, not sure to who as the man who bought it did not have a company logo shirt on. Could have been a scrap dealer.
It was positioned right next to a shed, property located next to the intersection for the road used for the vehicle line up many Corowa parades ago. One of the Matildas that Ron Fry bought (and on sold???) many years ago as it still had his initials painted on the side. Hull nearly completly stripped, no mechanicals. Tracks were rolled up in front of it, large sections siezed. It did have the ballistic skirt around the turret ring which I beleive is an Aussie feature. There was the box/tank assembly (1st pic) also included with it. For the life of me I cannot work out if it is from a Matilda or another tank, it had the metal braided hoses, inspection cover. If someone could ID this....
