Newbie from a new museum

gmm keswick · Dec 3, 2008

Hey All,
Just signed up. I am with a small, but hopefully growing museum in Keswick, Ont, Ca. It's the Georgina Military Museum. Yesterday we took delivery of a 1952 m-135, which I am going to hopefully get in shape for display at the museum. Not sure if it can be a runner. Friday, the M113 is being delivered for display. Also have an Iltis on the way.

Gonna need lots of advice to spruce up the M-135, so I hope I've come to the right place!

Will post a few photos shortly...we've just arranged a facility to do the work, and will be moving the deuce in shortly. We also have a 1984 Iltis in decent condition, with an m101 trailer in really good shape.

Except for a bit of rust and that scary tow bar setup ,she doesnt look bad at all. Good luck on the restoration, keep posting pics for us !

It looks verry do-able, yea its dirty and some rust, but I'd jump on it , don't look that bad.

Hey it turned over and fired the first time. That's always a good omen.

cannonfodder · Sep 1, 2009

Oh and the tow bar. You should of seen all the people waving when we towed it down main street with the Hummer. It was great.
