Tog 1 they don't. The only Cavalier tank I'm aware of is one in rather poor
condition on the isle of weight. They've got a FV4211 turret but not a
hull. They have got a Rotatrailer.
We have already got a lot of photos from the museum:
If the musuem are happy for tripods it is not without the bounds of
possiblity that they would allow addtional lighting if required. Certainly
