T-34 Russian tank pulled out of lake

YouTube - Nazi [ Russian ] Tank Found in Lake, recovered

That tank is in amazing condition, and it has an iron cross on it! It must have been captured.

 

You may want to check the WWII Today Forum. There are a few threads on the recovery of WWII vehicles.

 

I will thanks!

 

It's been mentioned here before... but it is a classic recovery.

Full series of videos below, including firing her up.

Some on it's restoration:

The last I heard the vehicle is now restored and running, but I can't remember where the page is now.

The last I heard of it was this:


The latest news about T-34. Have successfully started the diesel engine not replacing any spare part. Have replaced only bearings on skating rolls. Assembly of the tank will soon come to the end and it will be ready to trial runs. It is planned in the following season to carry on tourists and to show it as a working exhibit of our museum.

Update On Recovered T-34 Tank With German Markings



The restoration and overhaul of the T-34’s parts and components have been completed and the vehicle is now at the club’s workshop in the tractor park near the village of Sirgala (in the woods about halfway between Narva and Johvi), awaiting final re-assembly. The Estonians hope to achieve this in 2007, and finally realise their dream of being able to offer visitors to the museum a ride on a historic T-34 – and a turncoat one at that.
