Ok I had one lucky day back at work and found these 4 Panzerfaust in good shape(considering thye're ground finds).All ironsights and triggers are good and I alreadw removed some.

I need some ideas about the restoration.My main concern is about the letters.I can repaint them (any color code will be much appreciated) I also can make the white frame the writing was in, but what about the original font of the time?Any ideas how can I find these?

I think these are a superb find & in VERY good condition considering.
I should think that your only hope of finding the details you need will be from a museum that has one. Worth the effort in my opinion. I`ll bet the Imperial war museum in the UK has one or more. They will correspond by email but don`t go hunting for you. An appointment has to be made & you can make appointments to attend in person. OK if you know someone in London or are planning a holiday there.

Thank God for a reply here finally!Thanks Landser.

Thanks for your comments.Well I found a guy in Germany that sells proper stickers to remake them.And I also found a shop in the states that sells the reproduction rocket but he won't ship anywhere but the US for safety? reasons.If someone fellow from the States be so helpful and let me use his address to buy one rocket and then ship it back to me so I can make my own reproductions, I will be much more than happy.I will also try to make contact with the museum thanks.

Thanks for all the replies I will definitely have some good intel.

I think these are 60M but what exactly should I measure to find out?
