Well, on the topic of making museum relics 'live' again... I've read once it's easier to get back a WW2 armored vehicle back to full operation if you're working with a wreck pulled out of a bog or a river bed than an ex-memorial or a museum item! The reason being exactly the same as in submarines, 99% of these memorials or museum objects are just stripped out empty shells, with some bad welding and sometimes being simply structurally unsound.
