Hi Bill

Here's a pic of a requisitioned 2.5-ton Opel Blitz with Provinz Schleswig-Holstein plates.

Cheers

Thanks Larry:

I like the style of those older Opels and Fords and there are not that many photos out there of them.
I am on the wrong computer just now but will try to post a few others of these later.
Bill

Nice photos. :D

Bill: I know your liking for Ford pics so here's a couple of 3-ton Fords of the 286 Inf. Division.

Hi Larry,

sorry to say, but what you suggested to be a MAN E3000 is definitely a FAUN, maybe L335.

The 2,5t-Blitz with the IP-license-plate is a very nice find for me, because I live in the beautiful
state of Schleswig-Holstein/Germany. But with my photo-detailing-program I cannot identify
the words on the door of the truck (would help to locate the former owner).

Greetings
Thomas

Hello Thomas

Thankyou for the correction. I have very little reference matarial for the Faun truck.
Here is another photo.

Bill, here is a long shot of what I think is a 39 chevy Limo, Not as you can an ambulance as I stated earlier. I posted it here instead of clutering up the unit emblem thread. All the best, Mike
