I think it was featured in one of the UK or French MV magazines some months ago and I think the restro was finished in the meantime

Found the article. It was in "Vehicules Militaires magazine" no. 63 and shows several pics of the restoration by the Weald foundation (former Sdkfz foundation). The article does mention it was recovered from Holland by Farley Mowat and as far as I am able to decipher it was found intact at an Army base near Amsterdam. Article is written by John Blackman, so might have been published in a British mag as well.
