The World War II Museum was a collection of war relics – apparently the largest of its kind in private ownership in South Africa – that stood in sheds in Ron Selley and Kevin Langefeld’s back yard. Among the thirty pieces, all in running order, are a Stuart light tank, Sherman M4A1 tank, a CMP truck, 6x6 Ford lorry from 1942, a Diamond T tank transporter, Ford Bren/T16 carrier and two Marmon Herrington armoured vehicles. (Source: Go Magazine).
Three of the tanks in the collection were sold to the Kęszyccy brothers in Poland in 2009 and transported to Poland in 2010.
