Tank Engine Discussion on Tractor Forum.
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.

My interest are armor and old tractors, so I was amazed when I came upon this thread on one of the tractor forums: Sherman Tank Engines _________________ The only thing to do when a son-of-a-bitch looks cross-eyed at you is to beat the hell out of him right then and there

I know that over here there was at least one plough pulling competition, where one of the entries was a converted Sherman. _________________ Trevor Dr Trevor Larkum Preserved Tanks: PreservedTanks.com Armour Archive: ArmourArchive.co.uk EVs

Trevor, I sure would have liked to have seen that. It appears ploughing contests are big in the farming communities there. I have been invited to spend time on the Welsh coast this year and plan on attending one of the matches. _________________ The only thing to do when a son-of-a-bitch looks cross-eyed at you is to beat the hell out of him right then and there

Yes, I don't know much about it myself - I was told about the tank by a farmer friend - but I have seen similar small events at local shows. www.ploughmen.co.uk/british.htm _________________ Trevor Dr Trevor Larkum Preserved Tanks: PreservedTanks.com Armour Archive: ArmourArchive.co.uk EVs
