  1. I'm tossing my hat into the ring for the L3/33 LanciaFiamme. Is it still in its original paint?
  2. Marvlous! Hats off to the owner. If he wants an engine for it, the ASPHM have three of them! http://www.asphm.com/moteurs/moteur_jagdpanzer_38_hetzer/moteur_jagdpanzer_38_hetzer.html
  3. Just noticed a JPIV/48 listed on http://the.shadock.free.fr/Surviving_Panzer_IV_variants.pdf , pictured in the 1980s, dug in on the Golan Heights. No mention of one at Latrun.
  4. I knew Syria fielded a variety of Pz IV, several are in museums and still in-situ on the Golan Heights. But this is the first I've heard of them using JPIV/48.
  5. If I were a gambling man, I'd say it'll appear in Dunkelgelb! Whatever colour & markings, I'd have a play in it!
  6. It's a Swiss G-13, post war copy of the Hetzer. It was seen at Tankfest back in 2006. It has a muzzle break, that true Hetzers lack and it'll have a diesel engine, not the petrol one that a Hetzer did.
  7. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/obituaries/8355369/Frank-Buckles.html And then there were 2 (Or 3) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_surviving_veterans_of_World_War_I
  8. http://odkrywca.pl/raupenschlepper-ost-steyr-rso-czesc-v-,652817.html Somewhere in Norway?
  9. Can't have been many who made it off the beach.
  10. Nice photo, Tigercat it is! Reminds me, I must get to Duxford this year.
  11. http://the.shadock.free.fr/Surviving_T17_T17E1_T18.pdf Surviving "-hounds" Anymore to add folks?
  12. Two are known to be preserved in Brazil. Parque Regional de Manutenção/1, Vila Militar, Rio de Janeiro "The Brazilian army will only employ armored wheeled vehicles from the Second World War (1939 -45), while in 1941 begins to receive military equipment coming from the United States, reaching the first M-3 Scout Car, 4x4, 6x6 the first T-17 Deerhound, and this vehicle was only used by the United States and Brazil, and when the country sent an expeditionary force to fight in the Italian Theater of Operations, a Reconnaissance Squadron was equipped with 13 armored 6x6 M-8 Greyhound, who would return to Brazil and after that conflict would be a shield which greatly influenced the Brazilian Army, not only in its use but also served as a platform for future projects of national industry" http://www.defesanet.com.br/rodas/
  13. This lot are on a thread somewhere already. The owner won't sell them.
  14. Probably take a bit of recovery, let alone restoration. On (under?) a beach in Vietnam.
  15. http://www.armchairgeneral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=104773 :wow: If the real deal?
  16. Not as far-fetched as it sounds! http://good-times.webshots.com/photo/2095014630105175483qGQPVk Sitting 1.5km inside a minefield near the Calansho Sand Sea probably why the natives haven't taken them to the scrapyard yet!:cool2:
  17. Well, that was 20 seconds of my life lost!
  18. I'm sure there's a thread on here, about someone doing a weekend dig on an ex USAAF airfield, getting a lot of old bits of metal, ie tons!, some just twisted junk, some recognisable bits of engine, exhaust manifolds & the like.
  19. All the hallmarks of a good urban myth. What happened to the crates of Seafires & Corsairs that were supposed to have just been pushed into the sea off Oz?
  20. Does this count? http://forums.tripwireinteractive.com/showthread.php?t=49563
