BRDM Driver 11 Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 Just wondered if the Wespe is a replica? I assume so, but it looks very genuine! There was also an original Stug? (as well as the replica 432 based one) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Great War truck 38 Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 I think the top one is a Marder 3. It is using a 38t running gear (which might be post war, but the same pattern), mated to a genuine Pak40 and genuine Marder 3 armour plate that was recovered from Russia. Looks very nice. The STUG is genuine, ex Africa Korps, captured in N Africa sent to the UK for testing and eventually ending up on a range before going to Wheatcroft collection. Swapped for A schimwagen and then restored but fitted with a 432 drive train. A super machine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
