Driving the Panzer III through the streets of Grand Junction, Colorado to the carshow downtown. The city was nice enough to give us a permit, we just had to run with lights and 'slow moving vehicle' triangle. Everyone smiled and waved, you gotta love Western Colorado! The PZR III is 15 tons and 9'6" wide and has rubber track pads. It didn't leave a single mark on the pavement.

  • Would have been even more authentic if you guys were wearing Panzer Corp uniforms ;-)

    Great video though.

  • @fjcaron It was a carshow, not living history or air show so the dirty bird is frowned upon. Check 1:48 you'll see we snuck in a Afrika Panzer Corp Cap & a Luftwaffe 'Herman Meyer'.

  • This is a little tank! The Tigers & Panthers were lots bigger. We just had more Shermans.

  • How and where did you manage to get ahold of a MKIII?

  • @PrkZilla - Built from scratch with pieces of M113 AFV

  • Do that tank have air conditioning

  • @telorinodelhoyoo , LOL. No, but I wish it did. It gets very hot inside in the Summer. It's cold in the winter because it doesn't have a heater either!

  • We need more people who love history. To many people are giving a blind eye to the past.

  • @Odessa45 -- The video camera crapped out so we shot this with a still camera in video mode. Besides, it's a friggin' tank, it's loud!

see all

  • I was in Grand Junction in July ´10, wish hand seen you guys!

  • @Three1Bravo Numbers, speed, air support, and close artillery fire. A lot of German tanks never got into action with the USArmy because they were shot to scrap in their assembly areas.

  • @Three1Bravo if you have seen a sherman in person, they arent much smaller if not the same size.

  • Noob...  its Replica !!!

  • Wife:"Honey, we're stuck in traffic again!"

    Husband: "No problem." In headset: "Son, reload."

  • @Three1Bravo Most of the time, they didn't... :-)

  • A dream dreamed for 70 years finally comes true.

    German tracks on american ground.

  • you can clearly see its made from parts of a M113 look at the 5 lower roller wheels.
