Steve, we are looking forward to see pictures of the "before" condition of the vehicle. Try to use the simple keys of the message board!

As for the M-262 of the National Museum of Military History, it seems that the S.A. aircraft has at least 7 to 8 other brothers, according to THIS.

kostas.

Default Autoblinda Possibilities

There is a restored autoblinda in a private collection in San Marino. The owner also has a running Italian medium tank and a small tankette with the coolest trailer. Search for Italian tanks and Pordenone and you will see them on youtube, quite different from what we're used to seeing. I believe the owners last name is Temeroli but I've never had any luck connecting with him. Good luck.

J.P.

Steve,
I've only just come across this thread on the AB - a wonderful vehicle. I've had a couple of rides in one and it's fantastic. If you still need Fabio Temeroli's number please get back to me and I'll get it for you. I don't know how brilliant his English is but I'm sure that we'll sort something out. BTW, another AB is being restored by Edoardo Ansaloni in Bologna. From my knowledge of him he wouldn't sell spare parts even if it was to save his grandmother's life but you never know I suppose...

Default Autoblinda update.

Hi Stefano and gents. Stefano yes please if you could assist me in any way possible I would greatly appreciate it. My knowledge of AB41's is unknown, I am feeling my way trying to do as little damage as possible during the stripping. I have taken between 800 and 1000 digital images during the stripping just to document the rare beast. Only recently I was struggling to remove the wheel hubs (brake drums) from the axles, fortunately I succeeded in the end I'll post pics now that I have adsl at home so this will make posting images easier. Anyway if you could please email me on:

stephen@tegner.me

Or I could email you?

All the best
Steve.
