"Hi,
just seen your posting. My name is David and I work at the Weald Foundation (Sdkfz Foundation). Yes we are restoring an FT and also a TSF. We are planning to relaunch our website later in the year and membership. We are also planning an open day around a current vehicle restoration later in the year. Our plans are still at an early stage but if you are interested email me at wealdfoundation @ aol.com and i'll keep you informed."
Also pictures of their FT & what can only be termed "A kit" for the TSF's superstructure.

The thread is titled Stug III at the Port of Galveston.
Sorry can not provide a direct link.

I knew about the Renault FT tank, but was forbidden to say anything about it. The Weald Foundation borrowed the Bovington's FT running gear to make a copy of it. The hull and turret most probably come from the Maginot line, where a lot of FT hulls were buried in the 1930s.
P-O
