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.

Hi All,

We had a chance to swing by the WW2 Victory Museum in Auburn, IN for a quick running shoot.
As the collection is on the auction block Dec 8th, we wanted to document it in what might be the last chance to see it all in one place.

2012 Gallery Link:

As you can see from these images, many vehicles are already gone from the collection.

The Hanomag SdKfz 251/6 Ausf A & Hanomag Pionieraufbau are gone from this display.

The 3 Mercedes-Benz W31 present on 1/30/12 were gone from entrance display

If interested compare to the gallery from 2007/2009:

I am saddened to think of the collection scattering to the four winds. It’s an amazing collection of interesting vehicles I’ve seen nowhere else. It will be interesting to see what happens with the auction.
