Vehicle identity requests

[Papa G]

i do not believe it is a Tempo 1200. this vehicle is not as long and the front is shorter too. perhaps a larger picture will help.

It's a Czechoslovak Jawa prototype (it probably doesn't have any name or code) from year 1938. Not much info about it...
The photo is in a book Atlas Nasich Automobilu 4.

thank you so much, i sure do appreciate your effort. its a shame that this has no more info than what you found. thanks alot Jose85.

Hi George,

Originally a British type but chances are it's the license-built French version; C.f. viewtopic.php?f=47&t=73232&p=1313888&hilit=pony#p1313888

Hi Henning

Shows out board motors used on a pontoon bridge (Type B equipment), They would be powered up enough so they counteracted the river current and kept the bridge straight. They were used on ferries made from pontoon as well. In the same thread are a few photos of these. I have stated they are Ford V8 engines, at the moment I cannot find were I got that from, possibly from a Waffen-Arsenal book (but which one?).

Are they the engines for the ferries you posted http://forum.axishistory.com/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=168276&start=240#p1701872 less their propellers?

Hi Clive

I think you could be right. i think its a "normal" engineer unit with Brückengerät B and not a "Siebel" ferry. So I look in the Waffen Arsenal No S41 and found a Kstn for such a unit. It should be 6 engines in such a platoon.

Do you know more facts,designations or single pictures only about this engines? what for a function for the wooden "Traverse"? The pipe on top looks likefor the propeller.

Hi Sturm 78,

Very interesting pic. Thanks for posting.
