- TrevorLarkumI wonder why I didn't see these vehicles when I visited - were they not on display, or did I just miss them (I didn't manage to visit every part of the museum)?
Also, Michel, your Netherlands Register lists an M4A1 as a monument in the museum park - can you tell me more and provide photos?
- Michel_KraussThe Crusader Gun tractor has moved to the basement, because they are planning to restore it (don't know if it's only a paint job or major overhaul)
So you did not miss it, because it's not open for public :wink:
Concerning the FT17, it easy to miss especialy if you only have a limited amount of time
It's located in a dead-end corner behind the section where the artillery is displayed, to make it worse it's hidden behind some big Soviet trucks
- Michel_KraussConcerning the the Sherman M4A1, it's not located inside the museum park.
To make it more confussing, the Sherman not yet on display
In front of the museum park there is a town square with a WW2 monument for the 7th US Armour Div
A group of volunteers collected a M4A1E9 from a Dutch military shooting range and are restoring this to look like a WW2 M4A1
More can be found ith the Netherlands AFV register thread

There is also a link to the site of the group who are restoring the tank.
The site is updated at a regular basis
I think they are planning to have it on display at the end of september

Concerning the vehicle of the Military museum Delft, no s/n and no track records are known.
It's assumed it came from the French or Belgium Army

- Pzkpfw-eDo they know if it's for sale?

One's a Sherman, image from 2003?. It's gone in 2008, but you can still see its location from the deppressions its tracks have left & the bare earth. Three pontoon bridge sections ?near to it and a lorry's chassis & cab. Not sure what the sand-coloured vehicle is.
