Had a chance to visit the garage

Im sure you guys know about this place, but i thought id share a few photos anyways.
It was odd being that close to russian armor again, although they kept theirs in a lot better condition than the stuff i used to see.

I wont bother typing a bunch of commentary, i'll just post some cool photos.
Enjoy

Very nice looking collection, I wonder what is going to happen to it.

Nothing is going to happen to it. It was well established as a trust and is well covered.

Good to hear.

Very nice looking collection, I wonder what is going to happen to it.

As mentioned previously, the collection is well taken care of as it belongs to the Military Vehicle Technology Foundation. However, they did move the restoration shop late last year and it was quite an undertaking. Here's a link to some pics of the move: TOADMAN'S TANK PICTURES MILITARY VEHICLE TECHNOLOGY FOUNDATION SHOP MOVE

This is in CA, near San Jose, right? I think I read about it. I must ask, what is the thing in picture 9? It appears to be a missle launching device, with something huge on top of it?

Portola Valley, Ca

Its a scud launcher. All the ones we used to see were on wheels, this one was on tracks and kinda funky so i took a pic. If you look in the background of 6 you can see it.

My God! What an incredible collection! That has to be kept! Do they have a web site for a more liesurely tour. So Cal is a day and a half away, so I gotta wedge it into vacation time! ... And bribe my wife Big Time! This may interrupt the convoy plans that I had!
