So amazing to keep this history alive. I would love to just have the opportunity to help or be involved with this type of stuff. Granted I'm not sure where this is, probably a long ways from me I would imagine.
Great that all these second world war vehicles are being kept in running order. I imagine spare parts are virtually non existent and require specialist one-off manufacture, at not inconsiderable cost. I used to know a chap who had a 2nd war 'White' wrecker truck, here in the UK. He was in a helicopter one day and spotted by chance a smallholding with several similiar vehicles to his stored in the open. After making a mental note of location, he visited the landowner who turned out to be an enthusiast of such vehicles who supplied him with some rare parts for his restoration. How lucky is that?
Wow amazing. I think some of these vehicles there is a market for parts. Like Jeeps and Half Tracks. I think there are a number of these vehicles running because of the opportunities for spares being available.

HI,it is in a Village called Cosby in Leicestershire
Hi, yes Cosby is just south of Leicester
Awesome
Absolut!
There's enough armor here to do a really good remake of Battle of the Bulge
That would be good 👍
Is this in the UK ?
Yes in Leicestershire

@@mikeb9281 Top quality video by the way....i feel as though i'm standing in that field!
Nice replicas of the StuG's III, not original but good work.
Yes, I think they are modified FV432, the engine in the back and place the driver where the engine was
You can just see my Maroon Beret poking out here 00:06:08
