    Hey Joe,
    It is a sweet tank, I even saw where you had written you name in the turret when you were training in it!

    Hey William,
    If I am honest, you did not miss much, it was a great display, but very limited, the best part was studying out the system they used for the trailer and canopy. It was more for people who have no knowledge of WWI, it is a fund raiser for the Liberty Museum back east, and will probably raise a pretty good bunch of money before they are done.

      Hey Gus,

      What is the Liberty Museum? Are you talking about the Liberty Memorial in K.C. or is this something else?

        I can not spell memarorioal, but I can spell musum, yes I am talking about the Liberty Memorial. Have you seen the Renault up close ithat is in the Museum...Memorial? I had a chance to see it when it was in Haves' barn, it has some very interesting history, did they keep the 77 schapnel round with it?

          Oh Gus
          LOVE the tank
          Please ask this gentleman to bring it to one of our gigs. Is that an armoured creeper?

          Thanks for showing William

            Yes it is, If I remember correctly, a French farmer gave it to him.

            The only thing that is not original on the tank is the paint and the ammo rack, but the ammo rack is made from the original blue prints. The engine can be started from the out side, or the inside, I suspect the inside starting could result in a banged elbow, but I did not get a chance to try starting it from the inside.
