Arik Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 Greetings all! While I really enjoy my CVRT's- a Spartan and Scorpion- I would really like to find an SPz. One was listed on Milweb a few years back in the UK. Would love to track it down. Oh, a nice pun. Any help appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgrev Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Alan You'll want to be lucky, there is only one that I know of in private hands and that is in Germany - quite sure it is not for sale. Whilst you are at it, I would like an M113 C&R Lynx. Regards Doug dgrev@iinet.net.au Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgrev Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 Alan You had better email me, I think I have located one for you that is for sale!

schliesser92 Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 You'll be extremely lucky to find one now! They built some 1,600 of them in various versions between 1958-1967.The last versions in use were radar carriers (SPz91-2) , artillery OPs (SPz22-2) and ambulances (SPz2-2). The radar versions (70 examples equipped with AN/TPS33a) were removed from service in 1987. Of the 350 ambulances built, only 1 is in private hands (in Bavaria), and 2 retained by the Bundeswehr (1 in the Panzermuseum, Münster) According to a colleague of mine, who drove the ambulance version, they were noisy, horrible to drive and pigs to maintain.

steveo578 Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 There is a SPZ 22 at http://www.military-zone.pl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveo578 Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 woland They are a museum, so probably they won't sell. maybe, but considering they have a vehicles and parts (for sale) section with prices tend to make me think it is a convenience museum, rightly or wrongly there are a number of organisations that have been constitued as museums to make obtaining ex military stuff easier.

ferretfixer Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 Greetings all! While I really enjoy my CVRT's- a Spartan and Scorpion- I would really like to find an SPz. One was listed on Milweb a few years back in the UK. Would love to track it down. Oh, a nice pun. Any help appreciated. Cannot say for certain. But, I belive B&E Boyes had one. I have not heard favourable comments about them as they are primarily house builders rather than Armour enthusiasts! However, it might be worth a phonecall? I have NO conection to these people whatsoever. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
