Was there some story about a guy in Germany building one of these in his basement then having it siezed/destroyed due to German rules about not celebrating Nazism stuff?

If I were independently wealthy and owned a lot of property, I would buy this in a heartbeat.

After the wall fell, a guy tried to sell my family a T-34 for a bunch of Levi's jeans in Budapest.

Let me guess, your dad lost it in a boating accident.

They wouldn't permit it on the C-141 back to Bahrain, unfortunately.

They were still using T-34s during the Bosnian Civil War in the 90s…





Some had rubber matting added as some sort of protection…




My only guess is they were worried about magnetic mines?

I’d rather a Sherman. At least that one would run.

Naturally.

And yes, I’ve already built one. Though I did mine in winter whitewash…



… and mine still has its Schürzen.

@ Vadar,

Those were the ones with the 75 longs?

I think they wound up in the latter part of Africa Corps?

Would be totally cool to own but not for no 1.5 to 2.5 price, jus a wee bit out of my budget. Would be cool the hoity tooth places around with their Beemers, Mercedes, and exotics. They might be faster or more comfy but I could crush them all!
