The Australian Armour and Artillery Museum

Tim, it is in Cairns,Queensland,Australia.

They purchased a few items of interest from the Jaques Littlefield Collection sale the other week.

The most interesting item I think was the 'Toad'. The Churchill flail tank which cost an amazing amount in the UK when restored by R.R.Services in Kent and only sold for about 1/10 of the restoration cost. It was knocked down for a paltry USD$80,500. It was expected to bring between $500,000 and $650,00. So quite a bargain for Rob.

That explains the aggressive bidder from Australia!

Cheers Tim

Hi Cliff, yes they are a different colour but have a closer look and you'll see that the sand colour is of a solid plate without relief holes.
