Default Variation on a theme

Here's one from the 1970s... although mounted differently and a slightly different shape, they look to be borrowed from another make.

I downloaded a book titled German Trucks and Cars in WW2 - Ford at War and came across this page.

These are from the same book and should fit in this thread. Those Carden Loyd carriers sure underwent major changes! How many would the Germans have captured anyway? To make 3000 of these halftracks they must have started reproducing the track assemblies somewhere along the line.

Bob, I emailed you the page.

Default Thank you sir !!!!

Hi David

Man that translation is really sketchy..... but every little bit helps.... I have collected every picture from MLU......

I do consider doing a full size replica of a captured vehicle..... should be fairly straight forward..... historical accuracy should not be an issue as so many details are left to the imagination and what was available at the time.

I have a few Cab 11/12 to draw parts from but it will have to be a Chev.... and possibly with an auto tranny for easier driving..... some Chev 6 combination....stricly a fun machine.

Thanks for your help......
