I'm looking for a simmilar pic, but without the drive sprocket, maybe taken from an in maintenance or knocked down T-34, better if it is a closer picture. Thanks a lot in advance. Best regards.

I've just spent the past 2 hours Googling anything that would produce a photo of what you're looking for, and i've found not one single clear photo. Sorry mate. There'll be someone out there who has a book reference for you though, i'm sure of it.

Well, if there are not pictures like the one I'm looking for, not even in the book T-34 Mythical Weapon, I think it will be a lot difficult to find one, Oh, yes... There are only some drawings, but nothing that clear and I prefer to work with actual pics. Thanks a lot for your interest. Best regards.

Do you have the English or the Polish version of Mythical Weapon?
If you have the English version page 370 have an excellent series of photos showing the final drive components.

Page 370, right?.
In my copy there are four good photographs of the final drive inside and out and two illustrations.
Am I not understanding what it is you are looking for?

Now that is a sad photo. One of the greatest Russian tanks ever made just wasting away in a field. By the look of it there seems to be no hope of restoration for it either. I hate seeing the great tanks of the past rusting away in outside museum grounds. If i had it my way i would have them all restored to working, driveable condition instead of just plastering house paint over a rusty shell.

A real shame. Nearly brings me to tears.

Hopefully this photo will help you out more than my effort did Jose. At least the demise of this tank will have one small purpose. *sigh*
