That is a faux panzer.. A mock up to train panzermanner in tactics etc.
One of the better images I have seen of this.

second Photo looks more like a armored Car to me..

I am very sure the 2 emblems are tactical symbols. The "2" denotes the kompnaie. What Interests me is the side of the vehicle. Looks like a name over the numbers. Also a darn nice image!

Hello Mike,

Thanks alot for the help.


Is the first Photo a SdKFZ?
You are right, there is something written over the Numbers.

Also, is there a Chance to determine a Timeframe because of the Visor Hats?
early 30's....in the background is a Panzermann in black Uniform.

looks like "STOLP" written over the Numbers...maybe STOLPE

Hi guys:

Armour is not my thing, but I think I am fairly safe in saying that the first photo is an SdKfz 231 or 232. They arrived during the RW period and not a few survived to at least begin the 1939-1945 war.

The second is, as Mike says, a training vehicle that I believe is based on an Opel P4 chassis. Also, ex RW that soldiered on into at least the early war years.

The first photo is a Magirus Typ M 206a, there was also Kfz .67, Kfz67a and the Sd Kfz 263.

On the second photo indeed a a Opel P 4 Panzerkampfwagen- Nachbildung , built in the years 1935-1938.
