May be even a few Tiger II's?????!!!! AFAIK, not EVERY Tiger II was accounted for.....
I would think that would be a real kick in the a$$.

Small arms would be serviceable but vehicles would be basically useless after sitting around for 65 years. Hoses, belts, gaskets and filters would have dry-rotted, bearings would have seized due to rust, etc. etc. It'd take a year of nonstop work to get a single one up and running...and then you'd have tank that would fall to an RPG-7 or LAW round, or from autocannon fire.
Ammo for the 75mm or 88mm guns would be whatever was in this depot and that's it, period. I suppose if you really wanted to do this, setting aside the mechanical issues, you could take a few rounds to Krakow and find someone to make you replacement ammo...
