Axis Non-Armored Vehicles quiz

[SIS 5]

Hi Max,

that could be a Dodge 1936 model series, maybe the type LE 31 or LE 32 like on the pic.

Hi Bert,
Brilliant! That's exactly correct. A rather unusual vehicle in Wehrmacht service I would say.
Please continue.

[SIS 5]

Hi Max,

thank You! You are right, a really unusual vehicle in the Wehrmacht. So it was a very good question for the quiz!
Here is the next question:
Who can ID the truck behind the motorcycles?

Best regards

Bert

[Maxschnauzer]

Hi Bert,
As usual you haven't given us many clues for a positive ID but I'm thinking that it may be a VOMAG Dreitonner.

[SIS 5]

Hi Max,

really excellent! You are great! Again a perfect solution!
So it is Your turn to go on with the quiz.

Best regards

Next a passenger car:

Hi Max,
The swung bumper has a French look about it, perhaps Salmson S4?
Cheers,
Kerry.

[Maxschnauzer]

Hi Kerry,
Excellent! I had a feeling that you would be the one to get la voiture française.
Please carry on, Sir.

Hi Max,
Thank you for the question.
Here is the next, good hunting,
Kerry.

[Maxschnauzer]

Hi Kerry,
Aero 662 Typ 18 Roadster ca. 1932

[kerryboo]

Hi Max,
That was quick! Yes, you have it perfectly. Not exactly designed for military use, but the two soldiers look very happy with "their" new car.
Well done Max, you not have control,
Best,
Kerry.

[Maxschnauzer]

Hi Kerry,
Thanks very much. Next we have a specialized military lorry.

[kerryboo]

Hi Max,
The curse of the sausage fingers! I said "you not have control", it should have read "you now have control". A little less confusing.
Cheers,
Kerry.

Hi Max,

a very good question. I needed a lot of time ti find this vehicle. It is a Einheitsdiesel modified to a test vehicle as a snowblower. Here the pic of this vehicle with the view from the front.

Best regards

Well done, Bert and thanks for the nice clear photo. This was an interesting mod indeed, with the dual front Trilex wheels to handle all that extra weight. Here's a pre-war pic I was thinking of using but it's quite well hidden,

. It was also tried with a blade plow but with the standard front wheels.
