Trivia Quiz
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.

The low perspective of the camera kinda threw me off, made me think the superstructure was lower than it really was.... Plus I've never see that particular pic before... Neil

I'm not really up on those early 'T' vehicles. So what better way to learn than seeing what others 'see', in the way of ID details. "...training has taken place!" _________________ "Gonna hold my breath until Armor returns home..."

Don, That was a good pic to post. Like Neil, I've never seen that view of it before. I'll be saving that pic as one of the years I plan on converting a Stuart kit into a T18. _________________ Chris "toadman" Hughes www.toadmanstankpictures.com www.cafepress.com/toad...ksandstuff

Dontos, your "quiz" went two pages and alot of people learned from it to include myself. I think you picked a great photo with the right degree of difficulty. I on the other hand post pictures that are figured out in one or two posts. Where is that vehicle located/ picture taken?
