Yes...lots of money. Littlefield collection was trying to get 2 Tigers and 2 panther out of Europe (and 3 panther hulls out of Lebanon/Syria) before the Clinton era ban on importing arms and armor (Probably ITAR rules). Anyways there was a mad dash before the law came into effect to get as much WWII armor from there to here. Unfortunately, they couldn't. Littlefield was offering 10mm for the Tigers, and 5mm-8mm for the Panthers. Panther hulls in Lebanon/Syria were 3mm+ This may be a working panther and the guy got pinched because he did not DEWAT the gun. Big mistake.
As for Rewatting it and making your own ammo, you can do that if you have the $$$$ and a Type 10 FFL/ 02 SOT.
If I win the lottery, I'll be driving to work in a Hanomag or M8 Greyhound.
Didn’t Paul Allen (Microsoft, Seahawks, etc) purchase something like this?
