ArtistsRifles Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 OK all - any one here think they've got enough money squirelled away to be able to take this one one: WW2 Panzerkampfwagen V 'Panther' Very very rare and for the serious collector only. Unit is complete with turret. Located remote and deep in former Russian state but not in E.U. Film and full details to be added to website in the next few days. http://www.russiantruck.co.uk 01354 740674 http://www.milweb.net/classifieds/classpics/32846.jpg[/img] I reckon even Jack might struggle on this one!!! :evil: :evil: :evil: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiketheBike Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 Salvage Squad will have that up and running for Beltring :whistle: But seriously...do people really take on projects like that? It looks a hopeless case, there really appears to be nothing left! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiketheBike Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 Richard, who? Salvage Squad or someone else? Am I being unkind then? :cry: Mick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Farrant Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 Sorry Mike, I thought you may have seen it at W&P or the Odessey. It was rebuilt down in Kent, take a look at their website. http://www.sdkfz.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Great War truck Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 Kevin Wheatcrofts donor Panther is in better condition than that. Getting that one out of Russia will be expensive no doubt. Tim (too) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArtistsRifles Posted May 10, 2007 Author Share Posted May 10, 2007 I seem to recall the Panther featured on the "Tank Overhaul" series was referred to in terms of Millions of $$'s thus far - and still wasn't finished.... And as Tim says - the costs of getting out of Russia won't be cheap - but at least the aggro will be taken by Russian Trucks!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 So does anyone have any idea of cost of this tank, including shipping to the UK? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TooTallMike Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 I'd say you'll be talking in the hundred's of thousands given what those already in preservation are valued at. [Edited. Sorry. :-( ] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
