New Nashorn restoration project
The AFV ASSOCIATION was formed in 1964 to support the thoughts and research of all those interested in Armored Fighting Vehicles and related topics, such as AFV drawings. The emphasis has always been on sharing information and communicating with other members of similar interests; e.g. German armor, Japanese AFVs, or whatever.

Do you know if this is the hull offered on MilWeb some weeks ago? Or is this the hull found in southern Germany some years ago together with the JPz 38 ?? Or are both the same in the end ? Jens

I know it is the hull offered on Milweb. No idea about your other question. I'll ask the owner; P-O _________________ soldat_ryan @ hotmail.com Looking for photos of Sherman manufacturer's plates

Looking at the pictures in the .pdf it should be another hull than the one found in Germany - but if you look at the Panther and other vehicles in the Becker collection some additional plates welded in place can cover the origin of such parts completely... Jens

The owner was told the Nashorn may come from Kaliningrad / Königsberg. P-O _________________ soldat_ryan @ hotmail.com Looking for photos of Sherman manufacturer's plates

I was wondering what parts and pieces identified it as a Nashorn and not a Hummel. Garry _________________ armorfortheages.com/
