Little known history for this car. Probably sold in Oslo after the war. Has wehrmacht gray under the top layer of paint: At the moment I'm trying to get the unused tiers to inflate after many years without any air to them. New tiers were bought apr. 10 year ago. Mvnut, Don't think your project is worse than my other 1-ton blitz: Sigve

Thanks for posting Tony! What is this Tachograph? Do you have pictures of the back compartment of the panel van? Sigve

No exactly what you are after but an interesting shot anyway. its very hard to find interior shots of any closed body truck. does the Opel van have a timber frame? Tacho is the rev counter gauge I think. cheers tony nz
