Almost all the preserved army vehicles are now at the Military Museum, placed in Elvas (200 Km from Lisbon and very near the spanish border) .
If you go to FaceBook, look for "APVM Associaēćo Portuguesa de Veķculos Militares" . There you will find some videos about the museum and our work there.
Notice that we work there (more or less 10 people) one weekend every month as civilians and our work is completly volunteer.
In a 2 years time, now we have in working order : severall Unimogs, a Matador, one Dingo, a Saladin, severall jeeps UMM, severall Berliet trucks, and many other small staff cars.
The Matador that you see on the photo is a donner of parts for the working one.

I love that crank handle. Handles crank, two man, for the use of, Qty. 1.

They are a classic truck and I particularly loved the Armoured one in Merredin, W.A.
This photo lends itself to a photo caption contest.

What is the young lady thinking? eg. ....... and the British won the war,... right?
