Rhomboid tank movie!

The American "Renaults were made by the American motor Company. they had a Bhuda engine ,as apposed to the Renault engine. We have one here in Canada and it is sad shape as they were used to train our WW2 Tamker's.If i can scan the ones I have pics of I will post them.
The WW2 Canadians refered to the US tanks as the Bhuba tanks .
There is a Whippet in the same Museum it is in rough shape as it has damaage .
Aberdeen has a Whippet and a MKIV/V both formerly Canadian , part of the trade for the Bhudas and some later US variants.
There atill some of these in Khandar and there is an effort to return one to Canada, sad we had 200 and only 1 left.
Nice pics .I had seen that they were preparing the one in Fort knox for display on an older site update.
The Whippet in Camp Borden Canda can been seen in the you tube video on the Whippet also it's sister in Aberdeen.

Here the versions of in Belgium's tank museum

Though hardly a tank, Renault and AMC teamed up again in the 1970s with Le Car.

When Iwas a little fella waiting to go to College i was employed at an Automotive museum .The Main Director/Manager had bought a converted AMC FT17.I was asked to research the topic ,so a letter of the renault then i was redirected to AMC . It was still a company . They had a small listing of dtats and a brief desciption of the tanks differences. The chassis ran and it was converted to carry Ammofor the gun tanks. It is now in the US
The Budha wngine was a very produced marine engine ,so that is what they used .It exhausted from the other side than the Renault . The AMC was cast into each track .
More men died of CO2 poisoning then fromenemy action. seving in the Brittish male Feamle tanks.
