    Dear Sofilein,
    How nice that you’ve visited BAIV B.V. in Nederweert. These guys are really good in the restoration of WW2 army vehicles in special American tanks of that period. Thanks for this interesting vlog.
    Best regards,
    Dick de Graaff

    Fascinating to see how this restoration shop is organized and to see the work in progress. Each restoration presents different challenges, especially with rare vehicles where parts and even documentation is hard to come by. Great post, much appreciated, makes me want to don my hood and gloves, switch on the compressor, and start blasting media at those nasty patches of rust.

    I'm surprised you can get any parts at all with so many clandestine militias in the US building their own and stocking up on spares too. Nobody is making the glass anymore and luckily the lamination is cloudy like milk. Here's hoping y'all run hatches open when the day comes. Your prolly gassin up now to enforce the reversal of Roe. I'm sick of politics and war. This went south fast.

    Sofi , just saw your new view ...was out of the loop for a bit . This was a very good video and great job going around and very good to see you in it and going around too . May I make a suggestion to you , when doing one like this , pop some real good questions on them and get you a conversation going with them . Just my humble 2 cents . Cause I know you are well versed and a very great knowledge on the track vehicles. I greatly enjoy your videos here and all you do to preserve the history through the years . I'm so impressed on how much you have done on your channels and charities. With your knowledge, expertise, and experience, you can easily question and bring a conversation into these videos . Thankyou for all you do and your time to bring us such great content . You take care of yourself and be safe Sofi ...Big Smile and Wave to You ...
