Yes PLEASE, to a longer episode! The guys are not only the experts, but they have a nice concise delivery.

Best walk around ever these guys are really misrepresented on the tv show they are wizards for sure. It was great seeing so much detail about the rebuild.

"Combat Dealers " makes the Twins look like a comedy double act , eventually getting the job done - just in the nick of time. I'm so glad they had their chance to shine and for us to see what they are really like , even if it was for only 20 minutes or so

Bruce acts like a cartoon villain with Nick and Phil as the target of his many jokes on TV but they are amazing engineers and deserve huge credit for the rebuild. I'm sure there's a lot more to Bruce than the act he puts across on combat Dealers too, you don't rebuild a Panther without a huge amount of work, time and money to gather everything that's required. Fantastic to listen to Nick and Phil give their side of the rebuild story and I could listen to much more of this. Thank you for putting this here for us all to share

There are so few drivable Panthers in the world. These two performed a miracle. My compliments to all that were involved in the restoration.

It was an absolute privilege to talk with both Nick and Phil at AusArmourfest. My son and I spent 45 minutes talking with them - just a wealth of knowledge and great to have a yarn with!

The twins never seem to get enough “airtime” on the superb work they do. Loved this video, love their work! It’s a shame they don’t have an apprentice or two to pass on all their knowledge to. Happy to hear that Bovington helped where they could. It really showed how complex this German vehicle was, so much attention to detail, except the final drives!

It's such a privilege getting to hear such experts walk us through the process of restoring such an incredible piece of German engineering. We're also very lucky to have such an excellent museum here in Australia which has clearly built-up relationships with museums and experts all over the world.

These guys are geniuses !! Saw all the videos in England, they do miracles on vehicles, like your team does.. Cheers!

That Panther is STUNNING!!!! It has to be one of the best and most beautiful German armor restorations on the planet. Congrats for having it in your museum.

Nick and Phil are obviously very knowledgeable and skilled, but this is the first time I've seen them able to demonstrate the level of their knowledge (let them shine Bruce :-))

This video was absolutely fascinating. Well done to all the people involved in restoring this amazing tank.

we forget how skilled this pair are and never think about the network of skilled people they use to reproduce and repair these very complicated tanks , well done all

More interesting details here than in a complete season of combat dealers

In my opinion the panther is best restored military vehicle at the Australian armour and artillery museum!!

this was fascinating hearing nick and phil tell of how they lovingly brought this beast back to life!!! great job guys!!! they made it better than new. yeah, they fabricated a lot of parts new instead of using original but when dealing with a running vehicle you have to put safety 1st. then theres consideration of the future life of the vehicle. its a mobile piece of history and will always have a bigger impact when people can see it in motion (and ride in it he said with great envy lol). this vehicle will be running 100 years or more from now because of the improvements they made. great work guys!!!!

Loved hearing the Twins recall all the work done. I could have listened to them for hours

Phil and Nick were great to talk to at Armourfest, and very approachable people, their stories were incrediable to listen to

This is a worldclass restoration, amazing work from all involved!

One of the best videos I've seen about a panther. Glad to finally end the combat dealers story with it too.

I would happily watch 2 hours of these guys walking around this tank, so I guess that's my recommendation!! Keep up the good work! By far one of my favorite channels on KZfaq!!👍

best looking tank ever made

I never realized what complicated machines those Panthers were. Truely engineering marvels.

i am in awe of these two gents...........i hope their knowledge, skills and passion is passed to the next generation

Panthers and Tigers need this love and care .They may have represented a darker side of history but must be preserved like their Sherman and T34 counterparts.Perticularly because theirs so few of them.Great job lads!

Pathers have to be my favourite tanks

I love it when a workshop Wednesday shows up in the notices

I love Combat Dealers but always appreciated it for what it is, an entertaining show for the mass market and not really to be considered a documentary series so to see ‘The Twins’ in the real environment of restoration is a treat. OZ Armour and The Tank Museum have been favourite YT Channels for me together with Mister Hewes and Fitter Matt for yonks now.

Full respect to Nick and Phil for the detail and hard labour they put into her. It really highlights how the Panther isnt the Beast its made out to be. It becomes unrepairable once something breaks down and or damaged in a battle

I love the Panther. Alongside the Sherman, it's my favourite tank of World War 2. This one, of course, is Nick and Phil 's baby since they so lovingly restored it.

Absolutely beautiful! I bet the people who used this tank for target practice never thought it would ever be anything but scrap ever again. Just an absolute excellent job.

Better than most documentaries about the Panther itself. Such detail and little tidbits.

The great Panther, this is my favourite

Oh I'd happily watch 2 hours of the twins talking about what they did. Perhaps release some of the other footage as additional parts in the future?

Wow, what a stunning restoration job. Something that should last 100 years or more. Congratulations!

To say this restoration is hugely impressive would be quite the understatement. Bringing back to life an 80+ year old wreck is no small feat. Well done, lads!

The twins are matching the excellence of your mechanics. They did an awesome and probably extremely costly job on the Panther.

Please please please please please more details about the restoration it's such a shame it wasn't covered better on combat dealers so glad you do it on your restorations keep up the great work 👍

The skill of the twins can’t be understated, seeing them at work is mesmerising

To Nick and Phil, thank you for sharing!

Those two are geniuses and nobody could argue with that as for the Panther it's a work of art a thing of beauty

I would love to hear the twins talk about your restoration projects eg the Tiger, Jagpanther and Grant and give an appraisal of your excellent work

Oh wow, it is rare when a video ends and breaks my heart for ending too soon! Yes, a longer episode would be great! Thanks for this one!

Outstanding! It is such a treat to hear all the details of the restoration from Nick and Phil. I am sure you could fill two or three more 20 min segments with more cool detail. I love the fact that they remade the final drives and upgraded them. The final drives and transmissions were the real weak points of the Panther.

Artists! 👏🏻

Amazing restoration with a brilliant narration by the twins. Much respect to them.

It would be incredible to see the machine works and crew that rebuilt that engine! Amazing.

I spoke to the twins at AusArmourfest 2023 - true gentlemen, knowledgeable & humble. The Panther is real credit to them.

Superb work by the twins, a testament to their skills

The Panther is my favorite WW II tank. Thank You.

I had the pleasure of having some great chats with the Twins at the 2022 and 2023 AusArmourFest events. They were happy to deep dive into many of the topics about the restoration. It was interesting hearing how they had to pull the APFSDS "darts" out of the gearbox. A bit of an anachronism for the Panther and not something typically encountered during a restoration! Definitely a monster effort.

This is the video I’ve been waiting for. I watched the Combat Dealers build video several times. Great work all round 👍👍👍

What a beautiful machine the Panther Tank is. I've built countless amounts of German WWII vehicles as models to sell on line. But seeing this and actually knowing what the part is and seeing it for real was awesome. Great job!

Thank you for the awesome behind the scene restoration story of this beautiful Panther !. Can't wait to hear more of this story. That tiny 8mm pipe running all through entire vehicle for lubrication is just Amazing !. 😮

Wow, what an excellent explanation of their task in restoring this amazing vehicle. Their comments on the duplication of the Zimmerit just shows their attention to detail, that they tested it with a magnetic mine. This brings history to life. What I would like to see in a future episode is how a track was replaced in the field.

Was so excited spotting the twins in a video a little while ago, now I know why!

For a range wreck, it didn't look too bad!

Nick and Phil are masters , big respect

Astonishing the level of restoration detail and challenges overcome. Fueled by pure passion and….money.

I love all the "Frankly we redisgned these pieces and they are better than the original" moments. Shows what modern tech and two very intelligent gentlemen can do what a whole industry could not.

Nothing better than listening to British restorers, of old equipment, in the modern era!👍

Can not say thank you enough for the spectacular postings. The detailed explanations were just amazing. Kudos to everyone for bringing forth superlative history of the Wehrmacht.

Really good to hear the twins talking in detail about their work!

Brilliant work, gentlemen.

So glad I came across this video. Nick and Phil are amazing. The work they do and their knowledge. Fantastic to watch.

These guys are some of the best at what they do in the world.

This is by far the BEST walk around of a Panther tank I have ever seen.

Oh, something different this week, nice!

I watched the restoration through "Combat Dealers". The lads did a magnificent job.Sheer genius! 👏😀🇬🇧

The 'Twins' are the real deal . Amazing guys !!.

The twins are restoration rock stars. Interesting story. Thanks guys.

Absolutely amazing. I am running out of superlatives to describe these videos and the work that goes into restoring and rebuilding old WW 2 equipment. Now I wish that the twins had a larger part in the show they are featured on. Excellent in every way and I look forward to next week's video. 😎

That was a really interesting video, both from the restoration perspective as well as the German Panther design/engineering minutiae perspective. I don’t have any specific questions, but I would love to hear more about it from those guys. I have a feeling that they could talk for hours about it.

Thanks nick and Phil. Love the story and hope there more to add

Wow!, what a job. I like the way the one fella near the beginning, said that you can't look at a restoration on the whole, otherwise it can be overwhelming. I guess it would, heck I was overwhelmed just watching and thinking of all the work that went into the project. Beautiful restoration guys, wish I had my R&R now, instead of the late 60's so I could visit your museum. Adios

Nice work lads!

What an absolute STUNNNNIINNNNG restoration!

These gentlemen have restored this Panther into an absolute Masterpiece! I am sure it's new home The Australian Armor museum will take good care of her! This Panther will fit right in with its other great vehicles. What a collection our Australian friends have, a real national treasure this museum!

This was a very interesting video! Many thanks!!👍

G'day to you again, Great seeing the Twins again, they should have their own show Bless 'em,so tuned in to what they do!

My favorite tank.😍 Magnificent job!👍👏 Thank you for bringing her back to life.

A lot of hard work went into this Panther. Great guys.

Worth every bit of the $14million

A nice comprehensive video with good pics showing the story,the brothers come alive outside their TV persona.

That grease system is crazy! Amazing rebuild.

Yea this could be a whole season of shows. Great work.

"We 'ad some drawrings". Excellent.

Wow its finished already i could listen to the twins all night 😊

One of the best videos. WoW, what a wreck, brilliant work on the restoration! Scrubbed up well.

I gotta say, after the episodes on recovering the grant tanks and parts, this episode has been the most impressive to me. Amazing to hear such detail about this infamous tank. Thanks so much for putting this together.

I happy to see them get a more detailed shout-out! 😊

Total respect for the twin brothers- they didn’t get the air time on Combat dealers that they deserve -for the amazing restoration engineering work they have done and still do - a dedicated guide build tour of some of their achievements would be great. Well done for this video 👍🏻

Awesome to hear the bros talk with all their knowledge

Perhaps the MOST BEAUTIFUL armored vehicle I have ever seen! She is gorgeous! Congrats to these two amazing gentlemen. A true labor of love!

Incredible, the twins are amazing, taking a target range wreck and making it better than new, huge thanks and kudos to them for this massive working restoration, legends they truly are.

The twins are great, excellent mechanics and personable chaps.

A beautiful, magnificent machine, and an excellent restoration. Hats off to these guys.

The twins are absolute superstars

I've seen the twins on combat dealer episodes, I didn't realise just how involved and detailed work they actually do is, very impressed with the twins work and knowledge, great restoration and another cracking video.

So much engineering work, beautiful restoration
