Fantasisch, Männer!!!!! Ihr seid Helden des Handwerks und geschichtsbewußt. Herzlichen Dank aus Deutschland- von einem ehem. Panzerfahrer der "NVA" und "TA" (Technischer Ausbilder). "Latroun" in Israel habe ich 6 Jahre lang immer besucht- auch das "StuG III" (der Araber) habe ich dort bewundert. Best regards!

I've worked on heavy equipment for 50 years and I can tell you guys you did a fantastic job of restoring this piece of history !!!!!! Massive project completed by true craftsmen, hats off to you guys👍👍👍!!!! I really like the way you aussies think , nothing is impossible !!!!!

I have watched this probably 4 times. My hats off 2 the people that did the work. Just fabulous, and looks like no special equipment , torch and welder WOW

Wow, back from the scrap heap into a working piece of history, and I am someone who can appreciate this sort of thing from my studies and degree in industrial and automotive technology, I mean, the welding, the adaptation of missing pieces to old rust and torch damaged areas, apart from the firing range damage, and from I see a rather small shop in comparison to what folks would believe it would take, I mean, this is a representation of historical struggles of the men and the machines, and the stug's were known as a deadly foe. I wished I could be part of such restorations, just to be a part, but I only hope to at least someday participate in a build of something, I have some of the skills, I mean, I ever win a lottery, haha, then I will be found living practically in a shop environment restoring vintage military vehicles, some cars,....errrrrr, with help of course. The people who worked on this, real pro's in their field I surmize, welding, machining, mechanical.

That is pure craftsmanship and engineering. Thank you for sharing!

Glad you enjoyed watching the video and thank you for the comment.

Stug very nice,🤩 it has one beauty defect 😵‍💫1942 in Tunisia both Stug III D and Pz III J used an older type of front sprocket wheel. This type had G version mid-late and late 1944/45😉

If I couldn't see the welds would never believe it was made from spare parts and shattered steel found on range

What's amazing is looking at the progress of this historical tank a lot of these things had to be handmade and fabricated. I've always wondered how would something like this fare on a modern battlefield upgraded of course. This is one of my favorite German tanks of all of them even the mighty tiger.

Too nice video about stuG lll Ausf D with suitable music this tanks had effective lethal characters at that time

Hooray I've been counting the days. This is totally awesome !

Very high quality work... incredible commitment

You can't place music on KZread or at least good music, so you have to pay for it or choose non copyrighted music, but non copyrighted music will eventually get bought buy companies and destroy your videos in the future, just like what happened with this video. Making it an inaudible mess.

I really enjoy see videos with rebuild of tanks from WWII. However this is a powerpoint presentation added some boring music. It would had been better to put the pictures on a homepage so I could select those of most interest. I have to scroll the hole video serie to find what I found most interesting.

Wow, it seems to be revving its nut off and hardly moving. Super low geared or what?

that is beautiful sir.Excellent attention to detail.It must quite nice to say.I HAVE MY OWN STUG!! What do you have.

The M113 engine was meant for a vehicle that was 12 tons of aluminum. The StuG is 24 tons of steel with a top speed of 25 mph. How does the modern powerplant compare with the original? Kudos for the incredible engineering feat!

Entschuldigung: Fahrgestellnummer.

you guys should really invest in a garage otherwise u pay more for the red paint ^^

panzermatt - These restoration videos are not the originals, so the talking, that would supply added data, is missing. This engine isn't a tank engine, it's a more recent truck engine. There are other KZread videos of Stug-3s that you can hear the difference. So this motor isn't quite powerful enough - and this situation is one that is a bit awkward for a tracked vehicle like a tank. Also, you can't tell, but there's no interior, so there's no seats...I'm sure there's something, but it's not the best setup, and so he did well to get the Stug on the trailer.
