Hello, I have sold my father's H43 Protze 20 years ago.. it had no front Wheel brakes - I thought that all the H43 types had no front Wheel brakes, that only H143 ones had it... if i understand it well now so the late H43 ones had it?
...it had the old roller rimes, too...
Thank you for your answer
Frankie

It is a perfect restoration, really.
I have a question - my father sold his LH43 some 15 years ago, but it had no front brakes - so I thought it is the main difference - that the LH43 has no front brakes and the LH143 has them.. so the late L43 did have them?
Thank you, Frankie

Hi broccoli
They all came originally with brakes on all wheels. If it lacked at your father's Krupp, this may have been removed after the war.

Thanks :-)
I have some of the history of the Krupp. In 1947 it was bought at an auction i Kirkenes. During the war it was used by the 2nd or the 3rd Gebirgs Division in the Operation Silver Fox to occupy the Petsamo region. Therefore I will use one of this tactical insignia. But first, The Krupp is going to be a moviestar in a new film in a few months.

It's great to have the history ! Do you know how it came from Finland to Norway ?

There is a high probability that the Krupp has only been in Kirkenes area and up to the Petsamo in Russia. The German withdrawal through Finland came into Norway much longer south.

"During the war it was used by the 2nd or the 3rd Gebirgs Division in the Operation Silver Fox to occupy the Petsamo region" How do you know? Have you found insignia?
