I'm tossing my hat into the ring for the L3/33 LanciaFiamme.

Is it still in its original paint?

Marvlous!

Hats off to the owner.

If he wants an engine for it, the ASPHM have three of them!

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.

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.

is it being restored in Swiss configuration or like several others becoming German?

If I were a gambling man, I'd say it'll appear in Dunkelgelb!

Whatever colour & markings, I'd have a play in it!

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.

Somewhere in Norway?

Any more pictures to add yet?

Can't have been many who made it off the beach.

Nice photo, Tigercat it is!

Reminds me, I must get to Duxford this year.

Surviving "-hounds"

Anymore to add folks?

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"

This lot are on a thread somewhere already. The owner won't sell them.

Probably take a bit of recovery, let alone restoration.

On (under?) a beach in Vietnam.

If the real deal?

Not as far-fetched as it sounds!

Sitting 1.5km inside a minefield near the Calansho Sand Sea probably why the natives haven't taken them to the scrapyard yet!:cool2:

Yep, sheepfold or pinfold!

Well, that was 20 seconds of my life lost!

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.

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?

Does this count?
