been interested in military vehicles for awhile now, but because of my age I am held back from owning any, I joined the forum as soon as I found it and now I hope their is the right person out in ontario somewhere that might have a MV that they would like to see go out to a student that has a strong interest in preserving a piece of history

I also wouldnt mind networking with some MV owners in the area.
am located near hwy 427 and burnhamthorp exit.



I hope to some day be able to provide info and share experiences with vehicles with you all.

kind regards
