Panhard EBR-90 FULL RESTORATION Documentary

[@michelbonnefond]

Î was in in one of then during mine french service in 1973 ... lots of memories in 1973 .. lots of mémoires

[@Sillybutts]

What was your experience with the vehicle? Anything of note?

[@NaddlyC]

What was your role inside it?

[@gordonagent7037]

I think it’s bloody wonderful that you boys get paid to rebuild these old relics back to museum quality for the public to look at whilst you just have fun. Great job again lads

[@wilsonlaidlaw]

I often drive past one of these 8 wheel Panhards, parked outside the French army artillery division barracks in Draguignan. In late September, from my house in the village of Tourtour, up in the Var mountains, I hear the artillery practicing in the Camp de Canjuers, a large military exercise area, a bit north of me. I am guessing that it would be quite difficult to source a running flat 12 gasoline engine, which I believe was 12 cylinders, pistons and con rods from a flat twin Panhard Dyna car mounted on a flat 12 crankcase and with a custom crankshaft. Would you like me to talk to the artillery museum people in Draguignan and ask if they know where an engine might be sourced in France?

[@earlatkins9559]

Amazing rebuild, guys.It's nice to see another vehicle saved from the scrap heap. Much better in a museum where people can get up close and appreciate them.

[@pacettid]

Visiting the Australian Armor Museum is definitely on my bucket list. Not only are the results of the restorations amazing, so is the team. Well done!

[@tdb7992]

You can tell that the Frenchmen who built the Panhard EBR-90 took a lot of pride in the work and were masters at their craft. French engineering is always so unique and impressive. It's so cool that we have one on display in Australia.

French Engineering??? LOL Oxymoron.

To recreate the lines & curves of this vehicle back into shape is just mind blowing. Looking at the twisted, rusted, random pile of sheetmetal they started with, I can't imagine how the Ausarmour guys managed to reshape all the bits into an armoured car! Brilliant!

[@stephenyoud6125]

great to see the summary all in one sitting. Well done again Daz and Jessie

[@TheSavageRepairman]

Nothing short of pride in your work displayed here. Determination, sense of integrity, commitment to detail, not to mention years of hard work and dedication to the craft. Well done lads.

[@russwoodward8251]

This EBR vehicle is all stowage! Brilliant work. Thank you Aus Armour.

[@thomasbrunner5131]

Nice to see things fixed up with the care used by this group. A job well done!

[@dazaspc]

That was a transformation all right. From a rusty pile of French Garbage to a Pretty good looking pile of french garbage. They certainly were unique and it makes an excellent addition to the collection. The guys did a great job..

[@Montpup]

The French copy no one, and no one copies the French

[@ianbright9744]

Nonetheless you fellers do a bit of amazing outstanding work and I absolutely love these vids. Thank you all for all you do!

[@somethingnonsense5389]

absolutely a big thumbs up for the craftsmanship displayed while restoring these badly beat up vehicles.. it is amazing to see what you guys can do with a couple of (what really are) wrecks!

[@PassDaMethod]

God bless you hard working gentlemen. You're doing a service to all those who were involved in creating such impressive machines by restoring them to their former glory, and you're doing an even bigger service to those who want to see history kept alive to be appreciated and not repeated!

[@claytonnans5639]

This remains one of the highlights of my week. Your videos make me happy, Don't underestimate the power of your content.... Thank you.

[@shanechaffey9050]

Always like to watch people that know their shit and do it to the best of their ability. Congratulations guys

[@luftwicker07]

It just amazes me, the brilliant craftsmanship of the crew and what they can accomplish. Bravo fellas.

Very enjoyable video this panel beaten Panhard EBR-90. It is great to watch the weekly installments stitched together in this full-length feature. Well done to all at the Museum.

[@dcross6360]

Thanks for bringing this back to life for future generations

[@SteveMichaels]

Super excited to see the rest of this rare armored car restoration one day. Good Job you all ! Enjoyed watching an ty for sharing !

[@wattiespotatoes6401]

I saw this as a wreck a while ago when I came, awesome to see the EBR finally done! Love you guys so much

[@semiotto5973]

You guys put a lot of hard work into these restorations and it shows in brilliant work, it's great to watch these videos and see what goes into these museum pieces and it lends a true appreciation for the effort and lengths you go to in order to bring these vehicles to display. Keep up the great work.

[@wazza33racer]

Its like magic watching these twisted mangled wrecks transform into something original again.

[@Blazestation]

Absolutely astonishing. These tanks are the bane of my life playing world of tanks lol. Truly amazing work from all of the team, epic actually!! Keep up the great work guys! Stay safe and stay well.

[@NesconProductions]

How Daryl & Jesse figure out how these mangled wrecks piece together is simply astounding! Daryl's comment about Al was classic Aussie banter at 14:51! "This is the good thing about having old people here, he might have had a pet dinosaur but he's got bloody good ideas." 😁 - well said. The (Frankenstein) EBR-90 sure came a long way, well done by all involved!

[@shallteargf5974]

I really hope they can get it running one day. French vehicles are so unique and this one is unique even among them!

[@lesthiele4921]

Looking forward to the magic that these two guys will put into this re-build, hope all goes well, best regards from a recent visitor, Les

[@ConstantlyDamaged]

>FULL RESTORATION For a second I thought you were announcing that it was to be _fully_ restored to running condition. Still, very nice to see this machinery rebuilt as far as it is.

[@alanantoniobre189]

I would not doubt that in the future they will take it out again and completely restore it. The base is very good

[@ConstantlyDamaged]

@@alanantoniobre189 Hopefully! The German machines are apparently more popular for most, but I love seeing non-German machines.

[@edwardfletcher7790]

I think the highly unusual engine, gearbox and side drive system are the biggest barriers to it's completion!

[@GeraldMiller-mp8fc]

Engels Coach Shop has a master of recreating wagons of the old west out of a jumbled mess of rotten wood and bent iron. You are the masters of armor. You should meet each other.

[@thisolesignguy2733]

ooooh! I've been waiting for this! I didn't think the Panhard was going to be restored at all. Happy days!

Great team work, your all fantastic in what you're able to do.

[@billsargent3407]

Wow, what a great job, I don't know what scarier, those tight tight jeans, Daryls "Commando" attire, or the fact that they pounded all the twisted metal into something with curves vaguely resembling a 1970 Renault "Le Car". Well done!

[@pete.theeggbox]

love seeing this again - a very ambitious project - an unusual vehicle and a great example French things rarely interest me, but this is an exception to the rule, happily looks 100% better than it did previously

[@davidkimmel5153]

Thanks for all the work you do for us to admire.

[@roberthansen1901]

Another Miracle!!! The team totally "ROCK"

[@MrSychnant]

Very clever the French with two drivers (one each end) so that they just as fast in either direction ,as "Oddball" said in the movie Kelly's Hero's, "get out of trouble as fast as they got into it"

[@gadgetfellow]

Several armoured cars had that feature, i think there is an italian one with dual steering in the imperial War Museum in Johannesburg South Africa. For use in mountainous areas where u can't turn around on single lane tracks.

[@CapnJackSB]
