The Weald Foundation: Preserving and Educating on Historic Military Vehicles

The Weald Foundation is a charitable organization established to preserve, restore and maintain historic military vehicles from both World Wars, and to educate the public about their history. Our unique lineup of rare and important military vehicles that we have rescued is considered to be one of the finest working collections in the world.

At the Weald Foundation, schools, engineers, historians, modellers, enthusiasts, and collectors come together to discover and learn. We have carried out extensive work on many types of armoured fighting vehicles, including tank restoration. Our team sources original components and, where necessary, create new parts from the original blueprints or examples.

Our research into the history of every vehicle in our collection provides unique authenticity to our work. We strive to understand each vehicle’s story, where and when it was assembled, its role in combat, and the story of the people who operated them or fought against them.
