Panther and Whirelbewind in Canada?
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.

Thanks,
Eric

The Panther is at CWM Ottawa (undergoing restoration) and the Wirbelwind is still at Camp Borden (still displayed outside, move it inside NOW dammit!)

Why CWM haven't claimed the Wirbelwind (as it is one of only two survivors) is beyond me.

Cheers,
Rik

A couple of year old pictures of the Panther at the CWM Ottawa workshop, courtesy of "Aufklarung" at Axis History:

Actually, the full thread at Axis History deserves a look, a lot of recent pictures of German AFV's I've never seen before:

Axis History Forum Museums thread

And the Wirbelwind at Camp Borden:

Full gallery of the Camp Borden Tank Park by the same Mr Clark that supplied pictures of the CWM:

Would the real Mr Clark please identify himself? You are wanted on another forum. terry.warner @ sympatico.ca (oops - Cloaking Device, On! And stay on!)
