WOW! Chris....where in Holy Moses did you find those pics?? Fascinating photos.
I see the Sherman in the foreground of the first and third pic, but is that also a M51 'Super' Sherman in the sixth picture, second row from the rear, sixth tank from the right?
Apparently they also all use the same paint shop. ;)

Unfortunately, there is a strong rumor that much if not all of these old relics are being hauled away by a Turkish scrap metal dealer.

Thanks Jim for your answer.

But I have some trouble with the origin of these tanks. I many references books it is said that Iran have few tanks and here on the pics its give tons of them ?
