I'll trade you it for this. The upper looks good...not so sure about the lower. Prolly needs new treads.

Post them!
BTW what did they find inside any smalll arms?
We all saw the T 34 draged out of the bog and that was cool.
I am waiting for that KV 1 find
Some one on this board posted a good shot of FW 190 found in Russia.
I love this sort of thing, I even found a vid of two Dutchmen pulling out a Stg 44 out of a creek.
there is a missing Sherman some place down south.. Loast in '42, I was told about it in 1966 at Ft. Sill. True? Who knows? I see an MP40 here.

I also love shots of lost & found WW2 tanks.
There were some photos of a Tiger tank found in the Rhine river a few yrs back.

Note the german markings it looks to be a hand painted WW1 type Iron cross.
And yes I see a MP 40, man that is great they got that out.

When I was kid there was a M29 Weasel amphibian tank in the back of a junkyard near my home that was left to rot. We would sneek back on weekends when it was closed and play war with my best friends. (1971-73) I wonder every once in awhile what ever happened to it.
Around '96 I was visiting Laguna Seca race way behind Ft. Ord. We cut through the East garrison and found the tanks parked in a dirt field where they had beeb just parked. Motors still warm. Hatches open, how cold I not take a tour. I had not seen the big one in daylight before. The PT was a gas. I spun the turret around. The breech blocks where gone but everthing else was there. The lead element I was with in June '68 set a classic T at sunset on a new road NE of Dak To. This PT came roaring around the bend 50 yards before the T. Someone at the top paniced and fired a LAW at it from 25 yards and it just bounced off stright up. We where looking for a truck maybe or an oxcart was more likely. Can you say run like hell? We where just to count trucks over my VHF shot or grab bodies. What a FUBAR. It was neat to get a look inside a live one years later.
In this picture note the park brake. The thing wants to roll back down the hill into the river. Amazing the track and wheels still turn so well. Once they unlocked final drive everthing turned freely.
