Unknown Pzkw I
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.

Post subject: Unknown Pzkw I

Hi,

Yesterday I saw a tv-programm on the German television about a Grenzmuseum (Bordermuseum), the owner is Carl Jørgensen,
Tel.: +45 74 72 17 04 (google maps, street view: Tønder, Sønder Løgum Landevej 9, Danmark and then move to the border with Germany, you can see the museum).

Unfortunately the programm is not repeated so I can not say 100% sure what I saw, but I think I saw a Pzkw. I in his little museum, maybe a copy, maybe original.

Maybe one of the members knows more about this panzer?

Regards,
Wim.

I just wrote them an email to check, but I dont think they have any kind of armor in there, its mostly a national museum devoted to the Danish German relationship. I shall report back when I receive an answer if I ever get one. V _________________ hvasnakkerduom.blogspo...wagen.html

Hello VonForhud, Thank you for sending an e-mail to the museum. I could find only the phone-number, no website. If you found a website please send me the adress. Regards, Wim.

Thank you Walter and Michel, you did read my first post well. Today I got an answer from the Danish "Turistbureau". The museum has no website, the only way to contact mr. Jørgensen is by calling him. Regards, Wim.

Definately a Universal Carrier chassis. Quite a good reproduction.

I did write the museum. They never answered me. So I forgot all about it. Maybe a German wartime conversion? _________________ hvasnakkerduom.blogspo...wagen.html
