- L.DelsingVery interesting, is the other Panther still there? (fahrgestellnummer 121455).

- KoluchiyThank you for photos.
Can you say, what is the engine in this tank?
Was it installed during the restoration in USA, or by Germans?
Are there some serial numbers at the hull, at the left wall from the driver seat?
- Joe_DThanks for sharing Don,
Now at the risk of being a downer, I wish they had restored the Panther G instead. At least she is a "Real" tank used in combat. I think of what Mr. Littlefield went through to restore his Panther and seen a much better starting point with the "G" you have before being cannibalized. Maybe someday they'll get some funds to rebuild the "G" or at least turn her over to someone who will. I think of all the excitement for potential restoration when we hear a "Panther" is found in pieces and horrible shape these days and the one at RMP is just waiting to be restored. But at least she wasn't scrapped way back when.
Keep posting those insider images.
- Massimo_FotiNo, it's not a mistake. There is plenty of literature on the topic. A recap is available on Wikipedia:
