Here is a news bulletin on recent events arrivals at The Wheatcroft collection. Images of the new arrivals can be seen in the Hires section at The Wheatcroft Collection

New vehicle arrivals include a Sherman (Composite) with bulldozer blade, a Valentine Archer, a Krupp Protze, and a Pzkw lV Ausf. J

Also two forty foot loads of various spare parts arrived. One of these loads was spares for Radial engines, most of which were brand new and still encased in cosmoline. This included some 1000 pistons

The second load included concrete turrets and some King Tiger spares. Typically spares are collected and stored overseas until a full load is completed, then it is shipped.

Work has commenced on preparing a second Panther hull for restoration.

In July a fully restored and running Sd.kfz 251 AusF D will be arriving. We are planning to carry out a full study and hopefully some video when it appears.
