AEC Matador gun tractor

[Philliphastings]

I purchased the AEC Armoured Command Vehicle off Bob Dimer in 2006 and began slowly restoring it for display in the Merredin (WA) Military Museum. I was in good running order and drove well - albeit minus air brakes ! I have a newspaper article from the time it arrived in Merredin.

I had collected a full set of correct radio gear (which I still have) and had sets of the plans and stowage sketches.

Unfortunately after exhausting my meagre funds on the AEC and M3 Stuart Tank, I had to let one go and so after being pestered endlessly for some time it passed to another collector who restored it externally. Last I heard it was resident in the Merredin Military Museum with a different interior fit out than the plans I had.

Perhaps one of our WA based MLUers can provide updated info on it's current whereabouts ?
