Ross Rockstad's Type 97 Te-Ke restoration project
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.

Post subject: Ross Rockstad's Type 97 Te-Ke restoration project

Hello,

I recently had the chance to get some emails from Ross Rockstad, who sent me some very relevant information and some nice pictures showing the progress of his Type 97 Te-Ke restoration project.

Knowing that very few things are published on the internet about this restoration, I asked Ross if he was interested to get his own "tank restorer's webpage".

Here it is :

Ross promised to send new pictures and additional information as far as the restoration progresses.

Dont need/want an exact address or anything, just a town/city would work. If not, I'll probably lump it in as stored at Camp Withycombe but with a note that its privately owned. Neil
