Never seen this one before Paul , very intersting as i am guiding another Bulge Tour later this week !!

Paul, do you include the museum in Diekirch on your tour ?

National Museum of Military History Diekirch - Visit Luxembourg

Unfortunately not Tony , we visit La Gleize , 101 Airborne in Bastogne , Mardasson in Bstogne and La Roche en Ardenne.

Diekirch is very good but not on our itineray !!

The others are all good museums though ! Enjoy.

Thanks for posting, a few of those photos look like the same vehicle and building as in the photo i posted. That looks an interesting book!...

If you're keen on the subject, Dragon Armor make both kits and prebuilt diecast models of 2 of the altered Panthers.

I've seen the kits, it's great that models of such obscure vehicles are on the market!...

They do an even more obscure Panther-a recovery vehicle with the turret from a Mk IV mounted on it. Dragon Models 60664 - Sd.Kfz.179 Bergepanther Display Model, German Army sPzAbt.653, USSR, 1944: The Flying Mule
