Was the BRC 60 replica built in Russia, or is it a Duncan Rolls import from the USA? Very nice line-up BTW....

BRC 60 and one BRC 40, built by Duncan, the rest were bought (for restoration) in France, Australia, on the battlefield in Russia.

Hi NVK...Have you a copy of the book WARBABY? (https://warbaby.wmspear.com/)We are nearly at the last of them and I would like to get the handful left into museums such as yours. What are the practical problems of getting a 2.5 kilo book over there?

Hi Ladislav, I will try to find photos of MA in the Red Army. I personally don’t, if MA entered the Red Army, I think there will be photographs. Sorry for the long silence, I rarely visit the forum. We have a small collection of Jeeps, you will be in Russia, Samara, I will be glad to show you everything. All equipment is in full swing and we periodically ride through the forest and fields.
Sincerely, Nikolai
