I’ll have to check my copy but IIRC it doesn’t have more information than what can be found in this thread on here: CMP Umbauwagen

Footnotes Ford im Kriege
Hello Hanno,
Thanks for the link, I have tried to research more information about the F-15A Umbauwagen version from this thread. In particular, I am looking for dimensional information regarding the body and any information regarding the soft cover retractable roof. Does Mr. Frank list any footnotes with regards to his section of the SdKfz.15? Cheers, Richard

Hi Richard,
All that is in Mr. Frank’s book can be found in posts #11 (http://www.mapleleafup.net/forums/sh...5398#post15398), 18 and 19 (http://www.mapleleafup.net/forums/sh...1752#post21752) in the CMP Umbauwagen thread. That thread has the most complete info available known to me - believe me, I have looked wide and far. What is good about the sketches is that they give you the basic body dimensions. I reckon the rest can be gleaned from studying the available photos and measuring up the F15 chassis. Note: the original was based on a Cab 11 F15 4x2, not an F15A. For the general construction method (sheet metal over wooden frame) you would best have a close look at the other German Kfz.15’s. Same for the folding hood. Many have pondered over and planned for it; I hope someone like you recreates this interesting conversion one day!

Thank you Hanno for the F-15 vs F-15A clarification. It is quite obvious once I look at the pictures of the front axle. For my project, I will have to add the "a" to SdkFz15. The 4 wheel capability might just keep it out of the mud. Cheers, Richard

Rich, I reckon the German Army would have loved to capture some more 4x4's for use in the mud on the Eastern front. It would make a nice "what if" vehicle.
PS: threads now merged to keep all related info together
