Here how the M44 was looking in August 2010:

I was there last Sunday together with Christoph Zimmerli of www.wheelsandtracks.com. We saw the recently restored M44, they did a pretty good job on it. Centurion ARV back from Sweden.
We managed to visit the workshop where we spotted for the first time a BMP-1 and BTR-60, plus a CMP truck under restoration, there were very cool artillery things I will report on the artillery forum.

You know I am not good at Dodge trucks... What's the exact model of this?

Massimo

I would say, Dodge WC3, because it has no winch behind the front bumper.

P-O

Renault FT-17 from Thun SHP was a guest star. It's always a pleasure to look at it:

Centurion M-78520. This should belong to Verein Centurion as well, but I am not 100% sure:

Centurion M-78527. This tank doesn't belongs to the Museum, it's from the Verein Centurion association:

LTL-H came out of the workshop just in time. You can see they were in a hurry by the missing rear r/n Smile

The tank has a new paint job, that matches the one used by Thun SHP. External fittings are better too. Not sure about the interiors.
