so what happened to the multi-million dollar maus restoration project?

The_Chieftain: After Tankfest, in July, I went to the archives at Bovington. I ran into a bunch of guys from Kubinka doing research on Maus, apparently Bovvie has a lot of materials from the war period. Given the sheer scale of the project, you can forgive them for taking a fair bit of time doing advance research before undoing a single bolt on the real tank. Measure thrice, cut once.
