Thanks Clive:
Not to beat this to death, but as already stated, beute vehicles are a big part of my interests and archive.
In the photo you posted is, in the left rear, a Pontiac I have never seen before, next to it seems to be a 1935/6 Chevrolet Coach and the white truck looks to be an ex Belgian Chev or Ford.
To find these old dump photos of such a diverse bunch of cars and trucks that somehow survived that horribly destructive war really makes my day every time I run across one.
Someday I hope to write a little story here about what I have learned about beute vehicles and how they seem to have been allocated or chosen by the different branches of the German Armed Forces. There is a definite pattern and it is sort of interesting.
A part of that story would also deal with how the Germans handled requisitioned cars taken in Germany versus the confiscated cars taken in the captured countries.
Any additional photos would be very much appreciated.
Bill
