Probably early oval, but it could be from the zwitter era. _________________ We are striving for perfection, to make our cars run forever, if possible.

NOT a type 87, this is a regular rear wheel drive Kübel with a narrow Schwimmwagen front axle fitted, too narrow for this body obviously. A pickup conversion seems to have been quite common in post war times all over Europe. This one has Austrian N-plates (state of Niederösterreich). |

So you're saying a Schwimmwagen front axle was fitted provisionally as a replacement part. That could be the case, but why are you certain it's not a genuine four wheel drive? What is the tip-off? The width of the axle? _________________ We are striving for perfection, to make our cars run forever, if possible.
