Any idea what this may be. Got it off of AHF forum, with no other picture or identification.

(I edited this post and put the pic on another site!)

It's a Stug replica, probably based on a FV-432 APC.

Looking to the tracks, I agree with Rikard. The FV-432 APC is probably the vehicle wich is the cheapest and the easiest to find and to modify into a StuG repro..

Got this from a friend who is knowledgable of the German Reenactment groups and their equipment.

More if I hear anything

Note that the hull was lengthened, there is 1 more wheel than on normal FV 432s. Recently, a StuG repro which can be indeed this one was for sale on a website (maybe Milweb..I can't remember).
EDIT : The one I have seen for sale on Milweb was not this one, it had only 5 road wheels.
