What? No comments? Nobody wants a cool Kübelwagen? Even with the officer inviting you to try it out? And NO bullet holes to depreciate the value? What's the matter with the buyers on this site? If I had the money, I'd buy it! Now as for the officer, er, I doubt if he's for sale. Does he come with the Kübelwagen as chauffeur? OK, I'll take him as a bonus. But I don't have any money, as I said. But the guy looks great in his uniform - looks newly laundered and ironed. And the Kübelwagen is impeccable. Direct from the factory? Gee, sad I don't have any money for such a good looking pair! Keep up the good work! :-)

Now, this is some real story, you've told here.Always real fun and humorous, the only way you can tell it!Thanks man, great! Salute from Gerrit.

Excellent!

Thank you!Salute,Gerrit.

He heh! Remember when Volkswagen marketed "The Thing"? A civilian version of a Kuebewagen which was NOT too popular as I recall. However, I did think it was neat and someone even painted one in camo with a Bakan Cross on the side. I guess the Staties would not go for the hood-mounted spare. Looked like a vehicle you could have fun with -- the Thing that is.

Yes you're right.The germans did use it for many cases, it was multy functional and could compare with the Willy's jeep.Thanks for the fine story with a Salute from Gerrit.

funny thing is i had a vw thing.. that i painted desert tan.. would love that car :)

Then you are a very lucky guy.I have to do it with this scale model.....but I don't mind, I can live with the idea. Salute, Gerrit.

Cool.
