[About the actual car]
Born in 1921, Knispel began his military service in 1940 with the 4th Company, 15th Tank Replacement Training Division.
He then served on the Eastern Front as a Panzer IV crew member, demonstrating his superior capabilities by destroying numerous tanks.
He was forced to be hospitalized for a time due to illness, but after returning to the service he flew a Tiger I.
From April 1943, he participated in the Battle of Kursk as part of the 1st Company of the 503rd Heavy Tank Division, destroying 27 Soviet tanks.
In the spring of 1944, he recorded his 100th enemy tank destruction, and by the time he was killed in action in April 1945, he had destroyed over 160 enemy tanks.
It was the highest number of kills ever recorded.
