Winner????
How the hell can that monstrosity have won first place at anything???
Was there anyone there that knew anything about military vehicles???
What f$%#ing dream did he have to shove a 37mm AT gun through the gunners slot???
THIS IS A TOTAL MISREPRESENTATION OF HISTORY!! And that is what I believed organisations like MVPA were in existance for....restoration and preservation of military vehicles for historic purposes. Like the slogan says " Preserving yesterdays history today, for tomorrow "
However, freak show displays such as this only perpetrate myth and false beliefs. Some people have a hard enough time trying to remember what happened over sixty years ago, without having that blurred by foolish ideas like this display.
If this is what this person really wants to do...then so be it, but don't demean a serious MV meet by awarding this crap first prize.
EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED.

P.S. I am however fair, so if it can be proven with historical and photographic evidence I will retract all of my above statements and make a full apology. I don't think that I could be fairer than that.
