Re: Axis Non-Armored Vehicles quiz
Thank you, Rob
That was a little tricky. You didn't leave much to go on. Or rather the enemy ordnance didn't leave much. Anyway here's an interesting Mannschaftwagen in service of the Bulgarian Army:

Re: Axis Non-Armored Vehicles quiz
Hi Max,
thank You very much for the hint. I think it is a Dodge, model 1937 M-series, but I cannot say, what type it is, maybe ME or MF for 1 1/2 tons.
Best regards
Bert

Hi Bert,
Very good. I agree it is a 1937-38 American Dodge chassis, but where the European style Mannschaftwagen coachwork was applied is unknown to me. Congratulations and please carry on!

Re: Axis Non-Armored Vehicles quiz
Hi Max,
thanks a lot. I was trying to find the coachbuilder and I was succesful:
it was the Bulgarian coachbuild factory Gabrovski Bros. in Ruse.
Here a pic of this factory with an Opel Blitz bus type W 39 built in this factory.
I need some time to find a new answer.
Best regards

Re: Axis Non-Armored Vehicles quiz
That's great work, Bert. I have no knowledge of Eastern European coachbuilders. Thanks for your research.
Cheers,

Hi,
sorry for the bad quality of the pic. It is out of a book. Here a better and smaller pic.
And a hint: it is a German car.

Re: Axis Non-Armored Vehicles quiz
Hi Bert,
As we all know, those bloody Borgward/Hansas can be a bit confusing but I think this is a '39 Borgward 2300 Kabrio Berline or possibly a 2000.

Re: Axis Non-Armored Vehicles quiz
Thank you Bert,
Here we have an interesting double cab semi-tractor. The photo is a little blurry but I think the details are clear enough for a positive ID. Good luck!
