Awesome sauce! Wish that more and more WW2 armor pieces will be restored to driving condition throughout the world to show how they looked and behaved... Imagine the possibilities also for filmmakers to use them in future movies... Good stuff guys!
Joe Kundlak Unfortunately pretty much all the remaining WWII German armor have been found and restored to display condition and are in museums or private collections. It takes a ton of money and effort to get them in running condition again. Maybe there will me a few more discovered in marshes or bogs in Russia again.
I believe ALL restorations ought to include the guns - even if it is to fire blanks. The whole point of a Panzer/Jagdpanzer/Stug is to provide mobile fire. I hate to watch these beautiful beasts just driving around in circles, it would be like restoring a Viking warship and not sailing it or a medieval catapult without firing.
Is this Sturmgeschutz equipped with its orginal engine (rebuilt/maintained) or a replacement (non-OE) engine? Also, are all instrument panel dials/measures operational within? Excellent work on its restoration/rebuild.
And now I have no idea at all where this starter ring is because the videographer neglected to show that in the video. Instead we get a view of the driver, and then the back of the guy pulling this hidden ring. Bummer.
Jolie remise en marche, un sacré travail, mais le résultat reste nickel. Une silhouette assez basse, un canon de 7,5 cm, il était assez bien réussi à l'époque dans sa catégorie de chasseur de char. Mickael Wittmann en avait un sur le front russe à l'époque, bien avant de toucher son Tigre 1. Bon après, il y a eu mieux, mais bien plus lourd, et vers la fin du III reich il y a eu même le petit chasseur de char de type "Hetzer" de 38 t. On en voyait pas mal en Suisse 🇨🇭 après guerre, et longtemps utilisé dans l'armée suisse. Il faut vraiment un budget, et du temps pour arriver à un tel résultat. 👍.
Thank you for the content !. Stug3G is one of my favorite Panzer of all German Panzers. Wondering which factory did this stug originally come from, Miag or Alkett ? 🤔
Old clip just came up... Question about the colors. Zimmerit was original yellov-gray, and basecolor dunkelgelb. Was the zimmerit always painted. Later camouflage schemes were meant to save color.
Such a basic well thought out design and I wonder why we don't have this type of anti-tank infantry tax available now because they had good firepower it was low and was revolutionary and cheap to make. It'd be interesting to have an updated version of this go against Russian armor and the Ukraine?
Strong firepower, weak armor and full of corners and edges, like me. That´s because I like it so much. 0:55 so what interim machine is propelled by the crank, a clockwork or a an electric motor?
Inertia starter. Basically a hefty flywheel that is spun up with crank to a desired rpm and when the clutch is dropped it turns the engine and (hopefully) fires it up.
Generally yes. They did have electric starters but that was reserved for quick starts, emergencies etc. Manual starts saved battery power as I understand it. By all accounts, not much fun doing that mid winter when everything has iced over. As you can appreciate, batteries tend to fail in extreme cold as well.

Definitely want to see more of this StuG III
All other german WW II tanks I have seen on videos had misfires. This one not. It sounds simply like a modern, not-worn engine. Very impressing!
Wow it is amazing to see such a historic gem in action!

We are based on a farm

Sigh, I wish the Bosh had made many more stugs, also.
Nothing worse than seeing a historical machine restored to running order and sitting in a museum gathering dust!. Nice one chaps!.
I can’t imagine driving one of those in combat. My respect for all combatants, in all sides

Great vid and armoured vehicle. Thanks for sharing and keep up the great work restoring these pieces of military history.
Look at the smile on his face
Yeah, it´s his personal prey...
Amazing! Literally looks like it just came off the assembly line.
Nice to see these old fighting machines restored. They are a piece of history!
Brilliant
Great job Guys!!!!
Sweet!
Awesome
Ooooff! That is sweet!
Finally someone found and used the correct RAL colors. Thank you!
I did not know these were winding toys, its a good thing the Maybach is taking over.
What some people think perhaps often wrongly, these StuG’s were not MBT but a self-driving artellerie. . .
That was awesome

Imagine starting it up while under attack.
I want one!
Is this Sturmgeschutz equipped with its orginal engine (rebuilt/maintained) or a replacement (non-OE) engine?

Excellent work on its restoration/rebuild.
Yes, its equipped with a an original engine and the interior is exactly as it was when coming out of the factory.
@@wealdfoundation Wonderful. You folks have done meticulous work in her restoration.

Precioso cazacarros y muy efectivo. Que se lo pregunten a los sovieticos en el frente del este o a los aliados en Francia o en Italia.

Both our Stug III came out of MIAG.

My tank of choice for that time ;=
Gotta get me one of those.

why is stug lll in a farmyard...?
Respekt 😊👍🏻
How much?!?
How is she to drive, if you were needing to move from one place to another in a hurry during battle does it have the HP? Responsive?
Nice mint example
Kool 👍🇳🇿
I want a fucking Stug.
The Germán tank.beatifulll
I want one
"Honey,I'm going to the Market" Just dont tell her what your driving. 😂
speaking of expensive toys, ferrarri is a joke compared to this
Do you really have to crank-start it?
Generally yes. They did have electric starters but that was reserved for quick starts, emergencies etc. Manual starts saved battery power as I understand it. By all accounts, not much fun doing that mid winter when everything has iced over. As you can appreciate, batteries tend to fail in extreme cold as well.
Backbone of the wehrmacht....one every front present
How i feeel when i first get stug in war thunder
Awesome
