1) Semovente M42 da 75/18 Assault Gun Italian Number of Photos: 10 Click here or on the image for this tank's profile page Unique ID: 856 Serial Number: Registration: “RE 6173” is painted on the nose; however this was not previously visible so may not be authentic. Name: Other Identification: The Ram’s Head insignia of the Ariete Armoured Division is painted on the left side of the superstructure. This Semovente has been on display in the open since 1959, fitted with a fake gun. It was restored by OTO Melara in 2007 and a canopy has been installed over it to give it some protection from the elements. It was not a full restoration, for example the fittings missing from the rear hull were not replaced, but the replica gun was removed and replaced with a correct one. (Source: M. Foti). Before restoration it was generally in poor condition, with peeling paint, most of the internal components missing, and some signs of rust. Where the sand-coloured paint was missing it was possible to see it was originally painted dark green. (Source: P. Podavini via Censimento website).
