Ontario Museum buys fake German vehicles

[45jim]

The real tragedy here is that the money wasted on these fakes will never be fully recovered, lawyers will see to that.

The "specialists" enlisted to determine the authenticity and value of these vehicles on behalf of the buyer should be hung by their short and curly's as the whole military vehicle collecting world knew they were fakes long before they hit North American shores. German military vehicles are among the most researched and documented of any WW2 nation. No excuse.

I feel for the actual "buyer" who put very good money out on poor advice and now is left fighting a court battle in the US. I am sure he feels abused as his money was used in such a cavalier way by people who would never spend their own money in such a flippant manner.

Next time he should enlist proper "subject matter experts" to assist him. They are out there.
