Now that's interesting, I was just talking to a Canadian collector yesterday
and he told me about a friend (fellow Canadian) who had sold a fully
restored M16 halftrack with quad mount to a person in the Portland Oregon
area who claimed to be a museum representative and that the vehicle was
going on display in the museum that the Spruce Goose is housed in
(McMinnville OR. I think) and that when they contacted this museum later to
check on the halftrack the staff didn't know anything about it. Now they
don't know where the halftrack ended up. I wonder if this is the same guy?
