New US Register
The AFV ASSOCIATION was formed in 1964 to support the thoughts and research of all those interested in Armored Fighting Vehicles and related topics, such as AFV drawings. The emphasis has always been on sharing information and communicating with other members of similar interests; e.g. German armor, Japanese AFVs, or whatever.

Very well done, I do have a few minor corrections: Northeast Military vehicle services in Milford, MA has closed up shop and I think is trying to sell of their last vehicle, a M18 Hellcat.

American Freedom Military Vehicle Collection is Fairfield, CA bought the OTHER M113 lynx from Littlfefield. The vehicle pictures was purchased by this guy in CO: panzerfabrik.net/lynx-...-vehicle/. His has round front fenders while the one in Fairfield has flat, slanted ones.

Also, I contacted the Collings Foundation regarding the XM1 GM prototype and they said it was sold by the LF Collection prior to them coming on.

Also, the "HA-go replica" based on the M5 HST at Tankland was sold on Armyjeeps.net recently

Disregard the latter until I can further verify it!

I’m aware there are shortcomings in the register, but hey,for that we have updates . The register took eight months to complete and in that time things changed, but that’s life, the register never will be correct, but this is as close as we can get. And please, let those corrections come. The general idée is every two year a new register. Michel _________________ www.afvregister.org

Thanks for the update! I do have a correction.

The M60 in Thurmont MD is no longer there. It has been hard to find details of what was done with it. I was told that it was 'sent' to another veterans group in Pennsylvania. When I was last at the site there was a very cold feeling towards outsiders coming to look at the tank.

There had been several people who were very vocal about the tank needing maintenance. Some of the visitors threatened to have the tank 'repossessed' by the army if it wasn't given a thorough painting INCLUDING A COMPLETE STRIPPING OF THE LEAD BASED PAINT. I was told that they attempted to get a quote on doing the job and it was over $50,000 and that did not include transporting the tank to the shop that could do the job and meet environmental standards. The person I talked to said they did not know where the tank went and suggested that even if they knew they wouldn't tell an outsider. SO someone poisoned the well there. They really did not like armor enthusiasts up there. That was a couple years ago, hopefully the bad feelings have mellowed but unless I find I know someone in the post I'm not pushing my luck up there again.

Another update :

the T14E1 (M32A1B3 TRV variant) that was in Spooner in 2004 is now at Overloon. Joe DeMArco told me that "It was in Wisconsin. The fellow who owned that was named Kevin something, & I think he is a Dutch ex-patriot. David Doyle told me it had been sold, & was being shipped thru the Port of Baltimore. Before that it was used as a roadside advertisement for an Auto Collection in Las Vegas."
