Terry, what got me most on the veh displays was how incorrect many of them are; I was also appalled at the condition of many vehicles. It seems to me that us collectors are far better versed and take much more pride and care of our stuff.
How about the Pzkfw 2 that has MB marker lights?
I am sure Barry Churchers Armoured truck looks much better than the CMW example as well. I can point to much better examples for the most part that are in private hands.
I understand that funding for museums is subject to approvals, cutbacks etc but many people that are interested in these items look to the "experts" as they are the ones supposed to be in the "know"...
