sure this isn't a post war swiss G-13? The cannon looks like it has a fitting where the muzzle brake of the post war copy would screw on.

Yes I'm pretty sure this is a real WW2 Hetzer. The chassis number can be traced back to one of the first series that rolled out of the Skoda plant. Apparently it was hit by an allied round and later it was pushed into a crater where it eventually got buried. It was found again year later when road works were done and it came in the hands of a collector who "restored" it using a lot of G13 parts. I believe it had another collector before it came into the hands of the Crompton Collection in England They finished the restorations as they were and made it a working vehicle again and as far as I know they are currently trying to replace all the G13 parts with original Hetzer parts to make it an original Hetzer again.

Yes it is... I even got permission to go inside the vehicle to make pics. You need to be a dwarf to function in one of these as there really is not much space.
