Is this the museum with that home-made armoured Ford truck?

That's in the Frihedsmuseet (Museum of Danish Resistance). That building was heavily damaged by a fire, they are working on a new building/location but it wasn't accessible while I was there (summer 2015)

Yes, that's the one. I remember visiting that museum and seeing that truck when I was a kid, sad to hear it got damaged!

Thanks for the great pics again!

As far as I understand the collection or at least the bulk of it was saved from the fire. But I have no details about the status of that truck

That's pretty much all the AFVs inside the Museum. There were a bunch of quite cool artillery pieces too. If people agree I can post a couple of pictures here, without splitting content between this forum and the artillery one

I'm very glad to hear most was saved. If I remember correctly that truck was outside near the entrance, but that was 25 years ago so it might very well have been moved since then.
