Hello! I don not think the tank is from a trailer, because the dome is at another place: I'm also sure that the tank is not from a Kfz. 385/late (*) because the brackets are different: Somewhere I've a picture showing a Kfz. 385 with the tank removed for some repairs. Unfortunately I did not find this picture yet. I'll post it asap. Best Regards Guenter -------------------------------- (*) The term "kfz. 385/late" is my private indication. As far I know the late version of the refuelling vehicle based on the Opel Blitz received no number. For a better determination with the version used to supply the V2 I indicate the airfield version as "Kfz 385/late".

Hello Samdal
"fcx" = Schwelmer Eisenwerk
So the tank is either from a Airfield Refuller or Airfield Crash Tender.
"3500l" If the tank has only one compartment this would indicate it is probaly from a Airfield Refueller, because 3500l = 2600kg fuel. If the tank has two compartments it would indicate that it is from a Airfield Crash Tender. According to the pictures it looks like a single compartment.
"1942" If the tank has only one compartment this would indicate it is probaly from a Kfz. 385.
Best Regards Guenter
