RogerH Posted January 31, 2020 Report Share Posted January 31, 2020 Hi Folks, MVC575 is recognised as the TR2 that flew along the Jabeke motorway. It was saved (albeit in pieces) by John in North London and bought by Glen Hewitt of Protek. I'm sure he never made chassis's but did many very good rebuilds. The rebuild oft MVC575 was very quick, accurate and impressive. Although it looked like it was destined for a lock up over seas it has now been saved with Lottery grant money and will reside at Gaydon. Thanks to Glen for lowering the price slightly to allow the Lottery to fund, I believe, all the cost. As the lottery paid for it it is now in safe hands as effectively no one person owns it.
