I would be quite interested on looking at it but let me point out some things
1) I’m not an engineer. But puzzles, I love em. and it stems out to games and machines =)
2) That panzer’s turret is practically gone.
3) HOW restored we want it to be? justenough to move it around and look good, or into full running condition?
4) Funds and parts are obvious. Whether we want to use original parts or make it ourself is another question.
5) I’m in friggin Asia for uni.

Seems legit, it’s a deal! No no no, no need to show it. We trust each other, right?

Either the Finns are very good shots, or that is they have very few targets to shoot at. That thing’s seen some abuse in its time on the range.

The transport will be more expensive than buying the tank. :)

“Practice target” most likely means, that someone practiced shooting at that Pz.4

More than enough to restore. The Sdkfz’s JagdPanther was made from two range wrecks in much worse condition. It is after all all only metal, and metal can be welded, cut, filled and shaped. It will cost a lot of money to restore. I suspect it will be bought by someone who already has another PzIV in similar condition, and two become one. A restored PzIV will sell for $1.5 -2.5 million dollars.

Here is a Stug being restored, and it was in a worse condition!

“It was never used in battle, only later on as a practice target.”
In car dealers language:
“Promotional offer, local dealer sels demo vehicle with low milage”
