SCORE!! Went shopping on evilBay and got myself an early Birthday presie. Found a whole slew of different vehicles all offered by the same seller. so far the 1st batch of 22 vehicles ((+ one Freebie) so 23 in all. five autos: Audi, Auto Union, Mercedes, Opel and Citroen. 2 Mercedes Benz O 10000 buses. Trucks include: 1929 Mercedes N56 heavy truck, Hanomag tractor and Moving van trailer, 4 1931 M.B. L5 Moving vans one with a trailer, 3 1931 M.B. L5 Cargo Trucks, one with a trailer, 4 1930 M.B. L2 Panel trucks, 2 Bussing Nag Cargo trucks and trailers and last but not least a M.A.N. ML 4500 Van that I can convert into a kfz 93 decontamination unit or perhaps a Radio or Medical van. I'm expecting a few more next week but nothing like this HAUL. What fascinates me the most, is that I didn't know such models existed until a few days ago. The great news is I have photographic documentation of their use by the Wehrmacht and other para military organizations during the war. Oh Happy Day :thumb2:Comment

If you think that one is long you should see the one M.B. built to be pulled with a Semi Tractor...........had seating for 172 people (about the same as an Airbus A320)......if you think I'm joking, I'll PM a shot of it to you.......wouldn't want the mods to get worked up with us going off topic. :rolling: What the heck.......... photo for ref. onlyComment

It was one of three prototypes that were built .....one was owned by some bigshot with a heavy equipment company and the other two were test vehicles if I understand the story right. The big shot was trying to get it out of the country at wars end and it was destroyed somewhere near or in czechoslovakia.Comment
