Leichter Panzerspähwagen Sd.Kfz.222 Ausf B, 5 series
This is my Armortek Sd.Kfz.222 which has been rebuilt and repainted to represent a vehicle from the Aufklärungs-Abteilung of 2. Panzer Division.
December 1943 2.Panzer Division was withdrawn from Russia to France for refitting the Aufklärungs-Abteilung stayed behind and joined the rest of the Division in France during January 1944 this gave the division several months for training, servicing of vehicles and collecting new vehicles to bring the division up to full strength.
No doubt during this time older vehicles would have been given a thorough inspection repairing any damage and a full repaint.
This is how I got the 222 before I started the rebuild
Then the work to strip and rebuild started
