The Tank Museum has been running a fundraising campaign in support of its planned restoration of a Cold War-era M47 Patton, and with a substantial private donation, the fundraiser is closer than ever to its £50,000 goal. He added, “The Bannister Collection compliments our own running fleet of significant Second World War tanks, which allows The Tank Museum to put on shows like TANKFEST and Tiger Day.” Pyle recently completed his own M47 restoration project, making him the ideal choice to help the Tank Museum in its own work.
