Great War truck Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 Some great stuff there. Very interested to see the Rupert with an estimate of £6,000. a friend was given one of those a few years back. A French army ferret? Did they ever use them?

Pzkpfw-e Posted February 23, 2013 Author Share Posted February 23, 2013 Yup, Panther's gone for restoration and will be displayed with many of the other items from the old Falaise museum, in a purpose-built facility, the "Omaha Overlord Museum" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Great War truck Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 The MV catalogue is now available for viewing. Lots of interesting things. I think my bid would go on the Austin k2 ambulance, or maybe the 88 kit of parts if i was looking for a long term project. Some of the stuff is quite unusual. The coach built body on the Jeep is nice, but as it was a post war civilian modification why on earth did they paint it as an MV? Very odd. Anyway, lots of German tracks and parts which will keep the German MV restorer very happy (if he has a deep pocket of course). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Runflat Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 Nice surprise to get a copy of the auction catalogue with the latest Vehicules Militaires. :thumbsup: A lot of hard (and expensive to finish - read Axis) projects on offer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ajmac Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 It's all over, two weeks ago! Any info on who brought what and if anything is coming to the UK? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Great War truck Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 The results are on line. it appears that a few things didn't sell such as the weird Jeep, BRDM and Model T. Highest wins were for the 251 chassis at 40.5K, Kettenkrad 40K, Stower 26.7K, Sherman hull 25K and AMX for 15K. Not a bad day doe someone. I wonder how much will come back to the UK? The AMX looks very tasty at that price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Great War truck Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 The K2 went for just £2,100 and the three GMC's went for 2,000 2,100 and 2,200 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
