Hey! It was only for historical purposes or maybe a museum donation in the works. :>}

Why bother? They could have plugged the barrel and left it.

Prosecutors in the coastal region of Kiel, tipped off by Berlin prosecutors who'd recently searched the 78-year-old man's villa for stolen Nazi art, aren't divulging much yet, but a police rep did say that a torpedo and anti-aircraft gun had been removed and other weaponry had been found as well

The guy was just staying prepared in case the Russians tried something back in the Soviet Union days (I believe Kiel was in the FRG correct?). After The Wall came down, he kept them for sentimental value.

The real trick was getting it up the stairs...

The Panther was probably the best tank of WWII.

Not as fearsome as the Tiger, but faster and more agile.

I did a construction estimate for client of mine in NJ, and in the warehouse of his complex, he had an Argentine Panhard that was captured in the Falklands. How he came into possession of it, I do not know.

“I took this to be the eccentricity of an old man, but it looks like there’s more to it than that.”

Yeah like he was going to invade Poland.... again.
