Nice coachbuilt Ford Eifel (maybe it could be identified by the plate shape?), but... what the hell!!! Poor sleepy me, searching for the photos at night... 8O
Seriously, what is going here? Paper mache mask, or what is that? The side walk is full of families. Car looks Panzer Grau painted, WH letters?

Hi Jose,

interesting pic, indeed. But it cannot be a vehicle of the Wehrmacht. The licens plate is not WH, but IIH (region Oberfranken und Mittelfranken in Bavaria) or IIIH (administrative districts Balingen, Calw, Freudenstadt and Horb south of Stuttgart in the Black Forest).

Best regards

Bert

Hi all,

Any idea about the exact purpose of this rare variant of the Opel Blitz truck of Luftwaffe?

Steyr cabriolet. I'm thinking a Typ 120 of 1936.

Hi ,Nice little Steyr, carries the pennant for the divisional commander's vehicle, the tactical sign for a divisional Stab vehicle and the Antlers badge for the 118 Jager Division formerly the 718 Infantry Division.

Thanks for the info, Paul. The Wehrmacht had some sweet staff cars, no?
Cheers,

Hi Sturm 78,

sorry, I have to disappoint You. I cannot say anything about the exact purpose of this really rare variant of this Opel Blitz truck of the Luftwaffe. I have only one pic of such a truck with this special cabin in my collection (source: ebay).

Best regards

Bert
