They actually dragged two of these off a firing range, one has been restored to running condition and the other was used for spare parts, some of which are now over here waiting to be put into my friends Ha-Go project

Hi Tanaka

I thought that the second of the range Ha Go tanks went to the Nimitz Museum in Texas ?

There was an article in the MVPA magazine a few years ago about them, will see if I still have the article.

Well the one that was restored in those videos is the one a friend of mine has been involved with, and the second of the two they had really ain't in a fit state to do anything with now, thats why it was stripped for parts, some of which are now over here being put in to another Ha-Go tank
