Videos of WWII vehicles in working condition

Discussions on the vehicles used by the Axis forces.
Long-time forum member Ron Klages (1939 - 2007) generously shared his knowledge and the results of his impressive research with the forum, and this section has therefore been renamed in his honour.

Sander,

You are correct. However, before it was owned by Joe Fazio, it was owned by a former member of the 2nd Panzer reenacting group in IL. (http://www.2ndpanzerdivision.com)

Thanks,
Langemann

Excellent clip Sander, thank you. Will have to see Tali Ihantala 1944 when it comes out on DVD internationally. Another clip from the same movie, turns out the KV-1 from Parola is a runner. :)

Hi Daimyo

The kv-1 you metioned is based on a t-54 (or t-62 ??) undercarriage,they also build a ISU-122 on a
undercarriage of a t-54 (or t-62 ??).

Here's a link with some pictures of these vehicles.

Also a clip of some itallian armor:
