Hi Jode,

thank You very much for posting these very interesting pics. To Your question: You are right. The truck on Your last pic is an Opel Blitz 3-tonner of the second model-cargo. Here another pic of this model.

Best regards

Hi Jose, hi Max,

thank You very much for postinge these interesting pics, especially the Borgward and Austro-Fiat. Really great pics.
To Your question, Jose. I think the Mercedes-Benz truck on Your pic is the smaller type L 1500. Here a pic of this type out of a brochure 1939.

Best regards

Bert

Hi Sturm,
Yep, Ukraine. The banner says "Glory to Hitler - Glory to Melnikov!"
Cheers!
"...and on the 8th day He made truck so that man, made on 7th day, had shelter when woman threw him out for the night."
